Help my truck breath

[72 Rat Truck]

I have a 72 LWB C10 with a 350 and 3 speed man trans. My issue is that I want to install some headers but the Hedman block huggers that I had from a previous project shoot straight towards the transmission cross member. Even if the shop could bend the tube up and clear the x-member there is a clearance issue with the clutch fork on the driver side. What are your suggestions for a header that will clear everything? I have looked through summit and Jegs and unfortantly both are geared towards the 60's - 70's muscle cars...not our trucks. Thanks for the help. Also I am not looking to put any high bling items in there, keeping the truck a $1500 and under project.
