Same choices as all the other header threads. Except, 1 3/4" (or larger) would be called for with 195's. That's because of their flow ability and port size/fit.
So, you can probably elim SW and Hedman.

I currently have Exotic Muscle (EM) 1 3/4 on my 92 and they line up with the port fine.
I have a brand new set of Amercian Racing Headers (ARH) 1 3/4 to 1 7/8 Step sitting ready for installation and they also look to fit the port fine.

Not sure they're still sold.
Vette Tech in Los Angeles IIRC. From memory, I thought Brian Geraci's contact info was in this thread, but I don't see it on the first couple of pages. (Seems like his address was on post #1 or #21 in some thread...)
I didn't find it doing a search on White Page.com either.
Wait...here ya go. FWIW, White Pages says the phone number is a cell phone! LOL

I asked about these and a reply was "they are a chinese copy of Stainless Works". Still if the welding is good and they copy SW's they might be worth a try. I havent found anyone with a C4 who has tried em.
Go ahead Dennis, be our point man!!
Take care!

That's right copy's this is one of those parts who cares where it's made...
this is a part that is under extreme temp, and weather conditions....
OK the stainless is not the highest of quality.... the welds are very good
the final product very good.... there is no way any other manufactures are worth a 1,000+ more... huge money hungry mark-up... Especially if it's for a CORVETTE.... same parts for a Camaro min of $500.00 less

I think the US sends too much money to China but if you look at most of what you buy now is all made there. Its getting tougher and tougher to even find a US made auto part. But thats a thread for Off Topic.
