Will BBK Equal Length Shorty Headers bolt right up to Mak Cat Deletes?
Looks like it would but don't know if flanges are at the correct angle.

They should, as they fit with the stock cat pipes, which is what the same geometry as the cat deletes.

Driver's side stock header has the cat attached to it and the Mak Cat Delete has a flange welded on it.

The more appropriate question is:

Why would you attempt this setup?

For (one), you would be removing your stock shorty headers/manifolds anyway AND (two) for the price of BBK shorties, plus the MAK cat deletes you could just buy a set of non-catted headers (Pypes stepped headers would be my recommendation) which will give you equal or slightly better performance over the OP's original question, and wouldn't be any harder to install than the BBK shorties?

But I could be wrong.....

Emissions could be one reason. In the People's Republic of Connecticut for example the only way to guarantee that you'll bet through emissions is to have the stock cats in the stock locations, so the ability to swap the stockers back in can be important.

Granted...The OP is in Germany so not sure if that's the rationale or not.

Yes, they do a visual inspection here and ultimately I plan on having it shipped to the states. Before shipping it back, they will go through it with a fine tooth comb (especially emissions).

Great question OP.

I'd also like to know if the MAK cat deletes bolt up to a stock 11-14 driver's side header.

That is the direction i'll take as I don't want to hack up my stock cat/manifold.

We have never had a set of the BBK here to know if the flange angle is the same.

The 11-14 Manifold I have been told by someone who tried that it does not work.

I might want to try anyway.
[MENTION=10868]AdrianMAK[/MENTION] is there a discount for forum members?

Tune for the BBK shorty and you'll almost be on par with LT's.
