If I understand it the collector length is important too so my next question is would it be better to have a 2 inch primary but full length or going to some Chevelle headers which can get 2 1/4 but are a lot shorter?

I would go with the 2" tube full length tuned version before a shorter set with bigger tubes that are not tuned length tubes.

I have a set of the standard Hooker Competition series 2" tube headers that fit a 68-72 Chevelle and 70-81 Camaro that I was going to try to fit to my 69 stepside. I will see if they clear and let you know. It might open up some options for more headers than could fit with little or no mods.
