I also agree, Long tube 1 3/4 smallblock headers for 1st generation S10's would be great. There are no options on the market for them that fit within in the confines of the frame.
I think a set of headers for te 67-72 c10 crowd. Nathan porter from Porterbuilt street rods is selling the crap out of his "Dropmember" which converts the steering to rack and pinion. By switching to the rack and pinion it has really almost eliminated the possibilities for headers without custom fabrication. Maybe if you were able to build a set of headers that can be used with or without the rack and pinion for LSx motors that is a huge market to appeal too. I would think that 3/4 length would be the best bet so those who are slammin there truck can still use them. That is just my opinion though.
Chris I want a nice tight fit (ground clearance) 572 header! If your going to have these you have a sale. I want to support the forum sponsors as much as I can

I think all the choices you have in the poll are great. If I had one thing to ask for, it would be ground clearance. Even if it meant an oval collector to go into an oval exhaust system. Every little bit helps. If I had a second thing to ask for, it would be an affordable price . Unfortunately, quality and affordability don't always go hand in hand. Good luck, keep us posted.

Yes, ground clearence and price are at the top of my list as well.
There's no really good 3/4 length header out there for GM A-bodies with old-school small-blocks running angle plug aftermarket heads (like AFRs). There are a ton of these cars out there and while some top-end mfrs make pricey long-tube headers, the ground clearance is minimal even at stock suspension height. A 3/4-length header (Hedman makes a nice one) would be a popular P/N, but even the Hedmans don't clear the most popular angle-plug heads. The plug wires end up right on the pipes and even with 'shorty' plugs, they're real close - too close for comfort anyway.
