Default Kooks headers users...help please!

I bought a kooks x pipe that is going to be used with a different brand headers. The headers are similar in design except the collector connection is different. I would like to know if somebody is kind enough and if you don't have them installed yet, measure the length from the flange at the first and last primary (most forward and last tube) all the way to the very end of the collector where it meets the x pipe.

That would help me figure out the x pipe modification I need before I start with the install. I have a feeling that is going to be a matter of cut the kooks ball and socket connection and weld the v-band style and call it good. At least I hope so.

Thanks.
