I have heard anecdotally from several people that the Church Brothers will fit. I've specifically asked them, but they won't officially confirm or deny which tells me that they haven't fit them up themselves.

Other than that, about the tightest fitting header (full length) that I could find for another project that I built was Model A or 32 Ford header -- -that was for a SBC, but I'm sure there are options for LS for those cars, you might be able to check that out.

The other option that I was looking at was a mid-length header from these guys.

I'm not for certain that they will fit though either.
