Yes, you are asking too much.

You will need to ditch the stock crossmember.

naaah, just find yourself a good quality 4-2-1 or even a 4-1 header (with a little trimming) will fit.

Im just not a fan of hacking the stock crossmember. Too many problems down the road from doing that. Rust, cracks, etc....just not worth 2 hp.

well i really just trimmed the lip on the crossmember, about 4-5 inches, then hammered it in and sprayed some rustoleum worked like a charm with my 4-1 header. thats until i bought an aftermarket cross member of course but i think 4-2-1 header would fit a little more snug dont ya think?
