header question

[Stangtamer]

hey everyone...im running mac 1 5/8 inch long tubes...the steering column goes thru it and it hits on the headers and i can feel it in my steering wheel...is there any long tubes out there that will not hit on the steering column?

That's a new one for me...i'm using the same headers and mine are fine..? Is it just a little rub or a ton? Maybe just put a slight dint into the primary to help clear it?

I think a flaming river steering shaft may work, i'd look into that, instead of new headers.

It could be bad motor mounts as well. The flaming river shaft is a great option as well.

i just installed a set of bbk long tubes and i had the same problem, i had to put a small dent in the #7 primary for the clearance i needed.
