Default Shorty Headers

So instead of a v8 swap, I'm rebuilding my v6, and putting in a manual transmission.
So here's my problem, I know the 92/93 exhaust is bigger than most others, so will the either of the following headers fit my 93 dak? The ebay compatability tool doesn't really seem to know what it's talking about.

I know your truck and your money, but honestly you're wasting your time and money on rebuilding the v6. As well as looking at shorty headers.

Putting in the 318 is a lot better choice. Its a direct swap with little thought involved. A lot more horse power and more torque then you'll probably ever need and believe it or not you'll get the same or better mpg if you can keep your foot of of it.

As far as the shorty headers, they're next to useless on the 5.2 and 3.9 especially if yours is the 92-93. The factory manifolds even up to the end of the magnum engines flow just as well and often times better then the shorty headers.

Not trying to be that guy, just want you to think about how your spending your money and for you to get the best bang for your buck.
