BBK 351 Swap Headers Don't Fit!!!

Finally got time to take the car down for a week to do the swap.
Need it Monday to go to a distant job interview.

Got the headers on this morning, but they don't match the
H pipes!

The connections are basically in the right place, but are
angled wrong. Especially the pass side - it points way too
much toward the starter.

And the steering column rubs.

Disgusting for what is supposed to be a bolt in!!!

Now I have to drop the H pipe and try to rework the
ends to fit the headers.

And will have to borrow a car for the job interview trip.

If they're going to sell stuff and advertise it as a bolt
in part "with no modifications necessary to the exhaust",
it ought to bolt in!!!
 
Yup, I had the same problem.
Talked to the guys at Blue Oval about it and they said thats just how they fit.
I had problems with the steering shaft to.I got one of thous flaming river billet steering shafts.
