I have been looking forever on the net for headers that will fit 80s-90s Chevy trucks, but they were all for K series, or Silverado's. Im sure there are some out there, but at least for my C1500 it's bone dry. I would also like to know heh.

I put a set of Sumitt Truck Headers on my 1500 350. Had good luck so far almost 2 years. Have to do some Mods to the power steering bracket other than that not bad. These are the Short Headers that attach to your Y Pipe. Cost around $170. Also ran 3 inch exhaust. No leaks so far as with other Headers Ive used.

I have hooker supercomp headers on my '90 454SS. They were a bitch to put in.

I've got hedman on my 350 and they work good. A few leaks but it can be sealed by heating them cooling then torquing a few times.
