Those look like "block hugger" headers that interfere with the motor mounts in a truck. I used '69-'70 Chevelle "shorty" headers for minimum ground clearance.

If you have a small block, the hooker super comps are tucked up pretty high. I am thinking the front cross member would touch before the header, but they do stick out an inch...maybe 2 inches from under the frame. (not haning under the frame...just peeking out from under it)

my crossmember is raised 1.5 inches. So do you think that these ebay headers will hit the motor mounts (the motor mounts and crossmember mounts are still at stock level) Where is a good place to get some headers?
