Anything that fits a 3rd gen chassis.
My recommendation would be Hooker 2055HKR's, with a complete change-out of the exhaust from heads to bumper with '86-'90 TPI single-cat application parts.

i say the same thing!
hooker 2055's and an 86+ 3"(single cat) catback of your choice.
won't break the bank, everything will bolt up, and you'll have GROUND CLEARANCE!!!!!
hit the headers w/ some VHT hi temp paint before they go in too...
take our word, you won't be dissappointed.

don't worry about the cat if your state doesn't require it. save the money and fill the tank up.

thankx im glad you said that, i bought the headers yesterday and like usual oreilly auto parts screwed up and gave me the wrong header so today ill go get the right ones they had to be ordered. what should i use as far as glass pacs etc. i see there are kits for this installation ill have to do it myself any muffler shop wont do it because law requires everyone to have a cat but iowa dosent do inspections yet. i gotta jump over to the trans. department because im changing that too seems like it gonna be a task
