Which headers?

I have an '83 Z-28, I am swapping in a 350 next week. My manifolds are screwed, so I am looking for headers. My current system is stock Y-pipe, stock converter, custom cat back using a Flow-Tech muffler. Which headers will fit, and perform best? Do I need to get a new Y-pipe? (I also plan to incorporate a cut-out). Up until now I have been running with the cat-back system disconnected, it actually seems to work better.

I am very happy with my Edlebrock TES. But since I have the 350, if I could do it again, I would get the SLP 1 3/4", I know they are a fortne, but I think the larger 1 3/4" primaries would really help my car more now with the big cam. So, if you have the money, get the SLPs, but if not, the TES headers are very very good!
