Default Why do FLP headers have 3 dif part nums?

Anyone know why FLP lists 3 seperate part numbers for their c5 headers? I know why on 2 of them, the difference between the 01+ and 2000 and down but they have a different part number for the Z06. Anyone know why this is the case? Why would the Z06 kit be different than the 01+ coupe?

Well, never mind. 21st cent was actually open today and answered the question. Now I have a new question. He said the difference is in the air tubes. Does that mean that even if you were to put Z06 manifolds on you would still have an air tube issue to deal with? The Z has air tubes and the coupe not? Vice Versa?

If you look a a photo on the header flange on the driver side I think, there is a slot for air tubes? There must be a difference between the LS6 and LS1 heads possibly? Are you modding your new machine?

Someone is selling a set in the parts area for a damn nice price but they came off of a Z06. Doesn't look like they are going to work. Also have the opportunity for some cheap z06 manifolds but now I am thinking I will be running into a similar issue.
