I am swapping a 2001 4.6 2v into my 1996 and I purchased a used set of BBK Long Tube headers and am planning on matching it up with a VRS X-Pipe, on their website it says that there is a 1996-98 BBK Longtube X-Pipe and a 1999-04 BBK Longtube X-Pipe, am I correct in guessing that I need the 1996-98 x-pipe because even if the headers might be off a new edge it is going into a 1996? Any help is appreciated.

Yes you want the 96-98 model to clear your floorpan(?) tranny mount,etc. correctly.

So your using the 99-04 headers with the motor but still using the 96-98 mid-pipe?? Would the 96-98 headers work with a 99+ motor cause some brands will list 96-04 for the headers??
