D-port long tube headers
I have an LT1 swap on my 91 firebird and put shorty headers on it. I am looking to upgrade to long tubes and am looking for advice on a pair the will work with the d-port exhaust and seal properly too. I have the trick flow 195 heads as well. Any advise would be greatly appreciated. I did a search and really only found shorty header threads.
thanks

AFAIK any small block Chevy headers (well, except for ones with the Stahl type ports) work fine on those.

Yeah those square ones do that alot, on alot of heads. Notorious for poor sealing as a result.
Look at ones with rounder ports. Just gotta make sure that they're not SO tall that the flange misses aligning with the port boss where it's machined flat.

Re: D-port long tube headers
That's what I am afraid of and don't want to get the wrong headers. I was hoping someone has already went through the trial and error of it and found a set. I am looking at Doug's D3321 headers but i am not sure if they will work.
