Used Headers

I came across a set of FE headers for a 2wd that were ceramic coated and brand new for $100. I have a 4x highboy with an FE. No matter how many times I measured it, They seemed to be too short to miss the cross member. It looked as though they would dump into the cross-member, I think that you could bolt the collectors to the crossmember and seal them up. So I passed them up. Was I foolish? Will they really fit?

Anybody have a set in good shape for cheap, I need a set.

My Heddman Elite headers look like they'll hit the crossmember but they just barely clear. Mine's a 2wd though... not sure about a 4wd.
