In answer to your question, all of the exhaust systems you mentioned are "cat-back" design. Therefore, if you remove the cats, which are welded onto the factory header, fabrication will be required unless you just gut the cats & leave in place with the factory header. It doesn't matter which aftermarket headers you choose in this situation. Any headers you install will eliminate the factory cats.

SSW headers are readily available.
Jeal headers are not at present, unless Corey Henderson has made some very recently. He has the jigs and is planning on producing them.

Install the headers, install the exhaust and fabricate to connect as required. It's the only way to achieve your objective for headers & no cats.
