You might want to consider buying 2 3" flanges to place between your headers and your exhaust. Just incase you ever need to drop it to work on it. That setup sounds almost identical to the one i will be running. Just a thought.

I would buy a pair of preformed bandclamps if I were you to secure the exhaust to the headers. Get a muffler shop to expand the front of your exhaust pipes so they will slip over the headers and use the bandclamps to secure them. This will be the easisest and quickest way to dropp the system.
