Block Hugger Header Suggestion

I am using a set of stainless steel block hugger headers. I love the look of them but my engine is using the front mounts. With the engine in the front mounts it dumped the header right down on the crossmember. I came up up with a very simple solution to correct the problem. If you cut the collector flange parallel with the factory weld and turned the lower part of the flange 90deg to get the out put heading towards the rear of the truck and on a perfect angle to miss the crossmember. I figured I would post this if there was anyone else who wanted to use this style header but was having the same problem.
