I like the hooker cast manifolds but if you're looking for actual headers you should be able to find your answer with the search button

I put the Hooker Cast manifolds on my '67 Panel Truck with the 5.7 LS1 and they fit and work great.... http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from...folds&_sacat=0 You can buy them bare or coated. LockDoc

PB has stainless headers listed on their site. They are shorties but I don't imaging you would want to run anything too long with a drop member., ground clearance and all
Honestly I prefer the hooker manifolds over any headers. |

Re: Headers for ls swap with or without drop member
Another thing to think of if you plan on going with a Dropmember in the future whether it be Porterbuilt or Choppin Block, is the clearance for the steering rack shaft! I went with the Hooker cast manifolds as the others suggested because they provide great ground clearance and have plenty of room for the steering shaft!

Re: Headers for ls swap with or without drop member
Here is a link to a thread I posted in the LS Swap section about some headers that I bought that fit well. The company is Speed Engineering, and they offer longtubes in 1 3/4 and 1 7/8 diameters.
