long tube header question? ?

Who has long tubes and which ones you got? I'm bagged 85 c10 and looking for the headers that tuck the closest in the frame rails.

Thanks for any help.

The motor in my truck will suffer if it has to breath threw Shorties. But if it comes to that then so be it.

Wysco longtubes. They've got 1 5/8" primaries, 3" collectors, 3/8" flanges and they tuck up high enough that the frame will hit before the headers. I've got the stainless version on my truck, and they've been through 4 snowy/salty winters and don't have a lick of rust on them. Excellent bang for the buck longtube.
