Long Tube Headers (what fits?)

Well I'm new to the forum circuit, but by heart an old gearhead. I'm putting together my first 72swb with an 04 LQ4/4l80e combo. On a tight budget (wife was laid off)
I can't afford the $500+ Chevy truck LS swap headers so this what I have a question on. I've read some threads but could still use a little advise.
I understand factory manifolds will not work? I have a torch and a welder...let me know
If I install manifolds I have to rent a trailer and take the truck to en exhaust shop so they can connect my exhaust. If install long tube headers then I can save the cash for the rental of the trailer and the exhaust shop cost and connect the exhaust myself.
So will Newer F-body long tubes fit? I can find them on Ebay for about $200.00
Will second gen F-body LS swap headers fit? I can find them for the same price.
What other type of inexpensive long tube headers would you suggest. Thanks for your support!
