I think that the TPIS headers for the LT1 are L-98s. I just got my TPIS headers and they look sweet. Good quality and they are supose to fit with little or no probs. I will find out for my self next weekend.

Hooker also makes a nice set of headers for less than the TPIS.

I'm very pleased with my Hooker 2149's. I wrapped them with that fiberglass heat protective stuff. In the 2149's, hooker puts the O2 bung in #7 primary. I felt I would rather sample gas in the collector. I did relocate the O2 sensor downstream into a collector, but it wasn't getting hot enough(I think it's like 500 or 600 degrees that they need??) my L98 ran rich/obviously off from what it shoulda been.
I then put in a heated O2 sensor and car runs much better/cleaner now.
