Default Headers used with a mid plate

I have a front plate and mid plate on my 65 LeMans Bracket car. I have a set of Indian Adventures 1-7/8 headers and I want to replace them with something that fits better. Because of the construction there is one tube that goes above and below the mid plate and you actually have to pull the engine and remove the mid plate to get the headers out on the drivers side.

I'm in the process of raising the engine up a bit to get the pan off the center link and lifting it in the back to try to get the engine more level with the chassis. I'm tired of these headers and once their off there not going back on.

I figure I have two choices. 1. Eliminate the mid plate all together and just use the front plate only. or 2. Get some headers that work with this set up on a 65 A-Body.

Any suggestions on how to proceed would be much appreciated. Any suggestions on headers that would fit with a mid plate.
