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....

You can buy them bare or coated.

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.

Here is a link to their website.
