Best/Cheapest Header Solution For Dual Cat CA Emission Legal?

What is the best/cheapest header solution for a dual cat CA car that needs all it's smog? I am planning on running a Comp Cams 305 with 114 cam with LE LE1 heads (561 castings) all with a automatic and trying to get 350 rwhp. Oh, and the headers need some kind of coating to keep them looking nice.

SLP shotries I think. But they are not much better than stock.

Doesn't look like SLP offers them anymore. I just checked and it looks like JBA stopped making their shorty as well. Are MAC CARB legal?

Oh well. Looks like my car is going to have heads and a cam but stock exhaust.

I have the MAC mid lengths with dual high-flow cats but i bought them about 4 or 5 years ago, they may or may not still make them.

I have the same problem with my 95 TA with dual cats. Only found the edelbrocks for $555.95. Dual cats make it a lot harder to find headers in cali. But at least I can go true duals after I get headers. Cali smog ****'S blow!
