Shorty headers known to fit on 1986 town car without interference issue?

I found these Hedman 1 5/8 headers for sale, has anyone had any experience fitting these? If not, can you recommend a good model to use on the 1986 Town Car?

Fox short headers fit fine, but dont mate properly to the stock downpipes without mods if you were planning to use them. Possible to make it work, need to cut the stock flanges off and have slightly larger ones installed. Also need to re-locate the O2 sensors if you were not aware.
