well, it's just my personal suggestion, but i'd say go with SLP's headers under the group purchase. for only about $75 more, you get stainless steel (the ones you picked will rust unless ceramic coated), and a y-pipe, i'm not sure if the ones you were lookin at have one.
i just thought i'd put it out there for you to think about...

Well, $75 more for the headers and y-pipe, but you still need to buy the install kit.
Coating does more than prevent rust, and SLP's benefit from coating as well.
The Hedmans will be fine for a mild 305.
