Mid length headers for 3rd gen?

I know there are some for LT1's and LS1's, but are there any mid, like 3/4 length headers for small block equipped 3rd gens? I have LT's on my 95, but want something more like a mid length on my 3rd gen, any ideas? I don't want shorties, as I am going to put some Lane's True Duals on this car, too.

Don't know of any.

Nothing about shorties that precludes true duals. If the ones you're looking at meet up with LTs (and I don't know boo about them), you'll have to add some pipe, that's all.

Duals can be run with shorties. I'm running Hooker 2460 headers and dual aerochambers...

Hmmm, the hedman LT's don't hang low, huh? That's a possiblity then. I obviously would prefer some LT's. My dual maker(Lane's, some of the best for 4th gens) prefers making them for LT's, and I don't like shorties(never have...) so those hedman's may be the way to go. Where's the best place to buy them?

Summit or Jeg's sells them, but I would go with ACS (sponsor) so that they're already coated. Their pricing is competitive too...
