Doug's header / tti exhaust issue

Ok guys and girls! I just installed new Doug's headers on my 67 dart small block! Now I am installing the tti 2 1/2 exhaust with x pipe! The headers are wider then the tti exhaust pipes that are coming up to the header flang! Has anyone else run into this? If so, what's the secret?
I recently went from cheap headers on my 68 valiant to Doug's. I love the new headers with the coating but the collectors are further apart than the cheap headers rendering my old exhaust system unusable as is. I bought some header extensions and will try and put them together with the old exhaust system minus the front sections. Your X pipe may make that much more difficult than my true separate dual system.
