Default X pipe question

Hey guys, ive got a 90 gt and my buddy just gave me a BBK o/r xpipe. I already have BBK shorties that i put on last month, the poblem is the xpipe if for longtube headers. My question is, does anyone make an adapter for the lost space from the collector to the xpipe. I know i could just go pick up a set of longtubes but really dont want to make my knuckles bleed again putting them in seeing how i just got my shorties in.. Or better yet, if anyone has an x-pipe for shorties ill trade. Just a thought. Its not too big of a set back just wanted to know if there was an adapter before i have a piece fabbed up. Thanks for looking

yeah thats what i was thinking, i just didnt know if i would end up paying more for them to fab one up, then just buying an adapter. I mean im not really complaining seeing how i got this pipe for free and it still has the sticker on it, never burned off, he had it one for like 3 weeks.

you will spend more trying to make it fit, than you would if you sold it, and bought the right one
