ya. the X pipe will work. I converted my shorty x pipe and madeit to fit long tubes. just cut the socket flange off and weld it where its needed to fit correctly.

and you need new gaskets, which most of the time come with the headers... and just so you know, even though headers are considered bolt-ons, they are a PITA to install
