in finding the best length use a crayon marker or white painted line the length of the tube. after a few passes you will see where the line gets discolored. At that point is the correct length

This is what Ed from Headers by Ed told me many years ago and has been my guideline ever since.

It was kinda a Joke, they are 4 inch 19.5 inchs long merge with 2 1/8 primary in.
That collector should be just fine like that.
I was surprised at the total overall primary tube length (19+19=38"). But I like the 2-step diameters you are going to use.
