I don't think your going to find such a thing listed anywhere. Your probably going to be limited to: (1.) Having some custom made (and costly) ones made from scratch, and (2.) Trying to see if S-10 2wd 4.3 headers will work.

Ive come to the conclusion (with the help of you guys) that headers are not happening for my elky. Thanks anyway!

It can happen if you go into a 4.3 of V8

Hi,
I have the same car/drive train. The only thing I've come across so far is the link I'll copy/paste below. I haven't contacted him yet, so I can't offer any further information. The price looks to be in the $250.00 range. If you talk to him, please let me know what you think. I plan on emailing or calling sometime in the near future. I'd like to do some work on the car this winter, while it's parked, depending on what I can budget - perfect time to consider doing this!
