Where to get the headers i need?? help!!!

I've searched and searched on the boards but cannot find exactly what i'm looking for. I've found so much helpful info on what headers I want, just not where to get the headers i need!
I'm lookin for 1 5/8, shorty style, no AIR tubes ceramic coated, with o2 sensor bung, and 3" y pipe. I have been unable to find such a combination. I have a 92 RS 305 with tbi. I know i could remove the AIR tubes but i'd rather have them come without so I can avoid that step. The closest i got was the hooker 2055's but they have the AIR tubes and the other hookers that don't have AIR has no y pipe. So if anyone has or has info on where to get my combo i'd be much appreciative!!!!

p.s i've been on this site for a long time but have never posted, so i'm a rookie poster take it easy on me

Also i wanted to thank TGO. I upgraded everything towards my suspension from all the different and well thought out advice from the members and moderators. And i cannot be more pleased Thanks guys.!!

Yep, you're out of luck. No such thing exists.

Closest thing is SLP 30005C. Coated, 3" y-pipe, no A.I.R., but 1-3/4" primaries.

Personally, I think the 2055's modified then coated is a better bet, anyway. I'd include a fit check to open up the collector ball while at it.

My journey is included in this thread https://www.thirdgen.org/techbb2/sho...56#post2459856 .

I wouldn't call the 2055's perfect (you can search the Exhaust forum for a thread I initiated that discusses the nits). But, this is one case where I think the extra effort needed is well worth it.

Appreciate the help five7kid always on top of the mods! I'm just concerned about removing the AIR tubes I see how everyone else has done this and it looks straight forward, except i don't weld.
So i guess i have to figure that one out some how??? And i see that some say you can cut and then weld and not affect the ceramic coating? Because i was going to order them coated already. Will i be ok or is there chance it will chip the coating??
