Camaro headers on Corvette heads?

Is it possible? Can I bolt on L98 Camaro headers on L98 Corvette heads? What heads and headers should I use on my '90 Camaro with a Corvette block?

Ports are in the same location - they will fit.

But I think the shape of the ports on the Vette heads he's talking about are D shaped. So which headers wont hinder exhaust flow, if any? I'm curious as well.

Rich92RS, I see you have the aluminum Corvette heads on your IROC. Which headers do you use, if you dont have the stock exhaust manifolds? Are your heads exhaust ports D-shaped?

I've got the D shaped ports, but I'm still using the stock exhaust manifolds.

1 5/8" headers are iffy, you'll want a thick header gasket to cover the port. But 1 3/4" headers are good to go and are what I used. You can use SLP's or Dyno Don's.
