headers are definitely easier, and when you do a cam its alwasy good to have headers, so i'd start there.
as for what headers to get, im fond of pacesetter ceramic coated long tubes, but those are $430...not bad for ceramic coated long tubes...but they are tricky to install, not only cuz its tight in there but cuz you'd need to modify your exhaust to fit since they arent made for a direct swap. if you want shorties/mid length headers slp makes a good set but those are pricey...

I would say headers first for sure. Also check for some edlebrock and BBK mids. Of the two I would lean towards the BBK's, they are a little easier to install. I had a little trouble snakin the edelbrocks in even though they are mids, the BBK's were much easier.

My vote for mids has to go with Mac Midlength headers, easy install and good gains.
For average LT's I would look at Dynatech, good on ground clearance and give impressive gains.
Now if you want to shell out the big bucks then I would look at Kooks headers.

I have heard of Macs being difficult to install but the problems cannot be that bad since the headers get an overall good review from most people who use them.
