Headers for a 3.1

Help! I live in California and want to put some headers on my 1991 3.1 Camaro, but no one seems to make any smog legal ones. Any ideas?
Can I use 2.8 headers and keep it smog legal, OR DO I HAVE TO PASS SMOG, PUT HEADERS ON AND CHANGE BACK IN 2 YEARS FOR THE NEXT CHECK?

Technically the 2.8L Headers are a no-go on a 3.1L. So swap them out every 2 years is an option.

It does depend on where you go though. Some techs don't check it, they just want to see that you have an E.O.# and that's it, they don't check application.
