I was thinking of getting the equal length shorty headers from flowtec in jegs for 130 dollars. I broke some of the studs on the stock headers trying to put an x pipe on so im just gonna put some cheap headers on. Will those headers work on an 88 auto? Also the x pipe i got from my brother and it has the circle ports for a 5.0 it should work for all years correct and with those headers?

I would suggest going with the unequal lengths. The difference in performance won't be too bad and the ease of install VS the equal lenghts will be well worth it. If you've got all the stock emmisions and stuff under the hood, installing those equal lenghts will drive you crazy.
