I just got that express sight in, took a measurement and it looks like I'll have to raise that front sight for sure to compensate.
The Lo pro seems like the better choice.

Resurrecting this thread. Skinner doesn’t list the Lo Pro sight under its Henry options, so I missed it. For those that ordered it, I presume it’s the 8-40 thread like the Marlin? I was considering the Express, but now may go this route.

You presume correctly - order the 8-40 thread for a Henry BigBoy. Here's one on a BBS 44:
