Newbie Exhast Question - 63 w/350

Hello All, I recently bought a 63 c10 fleetside longbed. It had no motor, trans, radiator or drive shaft. The previous owner had converted the front to disk brakes. I bought a 350 and found some procomp ceramic coated mid-length headers on craigslist and went to install the motor this weekend only to find that the headers were hitting the chassis on broth sides and preventing the motor from sitting on the perches. after about two hours of lifting, prying and shoving I finally gave up and removed the headers. The motor is now bolted in and I need some advice about finding an exhaust manifold that will work with my truck and 350. I have looked at the rams horn type, it seems they would dump above the chassis just past the perches and there would still be a problem getting a pipe up to them to connect. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
