s10 exhaust...

Alright... getting back on track from some recent events in life... I've ordered the stainless 2.25" sections for a dual exhaust with crossover and trying my damndest to find a set of headers that will work on an S10 V8 SBC setup.

I've got about 3.5" between the heads and the intermediate shaft and the Headman S10 V8 headers make me nervous... any vibration on the motor and the seals on the heads are gonna get broken.

What I'm looking for is a set of headers that are VERY close to the block (block huggers won't work due to the dump being right on the rear of the upper control arms). Does anyone know of a manufacturer that sells a set the will fit, prefer long tubes, but not critical, or am I going to be stuck using a set of cast stock manifolds (anyone have any good stories of porting them out?).

Thanks kindly,
Ted.

PS Already checked out the Sanderson casts QP1000(?)... they'll work, but not the prettiest IMO.
