Is your '91 a magnum engine? I know thats the year they switched, but I don't know if the early '91s still had the LA engine.

*Edit* Nevermind, I got mixed up, the magnums came in use in '92.

The later magnum engines had different heads, so I doubt any of them will work.

Summitracing has one pair that I saw, they aren't for the dakota, but they will fit the engine if you're willing to make a custom y-pipe:

You could also try looking on JEGs, but they have similar stuff to summit.

91 is the only v8 premagnum engine. So there is no other year. There are long tube headers that will clear everthing but will not fit directly to your y pipe. Check out www.summitracing.com
Any header for a 318 or 360 pre 91 will fit the engine, but may not fit the truck.

Look into headers for a older Dodge van, I think Headman made a block hugger style for vans back in the 80's.
