Default Headers?

So on my ‘94, someone put on Hooker block huggers on it. Problem is they don’t seem to be right. Making plug replacement damn near impossible not to mention someone never put all bolts in, blowing out the gaskets. What do you guys run? I’m thinking long tubes would be the way to go. It came with angle plug Dart Pro 1 heads. Looking for some ideas.
Thanks

I ordered TPiS headers. Should be done around May.

My headers are no longer made but the TPIS units look almost identical to them. My plug changes with angle plug heads are faster than stock was and access is better. I have no issues doing it hot even.
