223 Truck headers?

I bought a set of patriot headers about four years ago. They must be for a sedan because I went to install them with a Clifford Performance intake on my sons truck, and they won't fit under the cross member.
What headers are available for the 61 truck with a 223?

Thanks Brian, I actually have a set of those for my 223 build. I bought mine for somewhat less than that, they do like their stuff at Clifford
However I was looking for something a bit on the less expensive side for my boys build, since he does not have the same resources, and only paid 500.00 for the whole truck, and 100.00 for the intake :clap:
I may have to keep trying to tweak the long tube patriot headers, that don't fit

$1195 for all of that doesn't seem bad to me, particularly if it fits. A cheaper part doesn't work out to be much cheaper if it doesn't fit. And if Clifford deliver on the 50% to 60% increase in power, then it is even better.
Of course, I'm accustomed to Y-block prices and just about anything is as good or cheaper.
