Help With Fit Issues After Long Tube Headers Upgrade

[Drugdriver]

Installed headers after removing engine from my 1999 cobra. Went to reinstall engine can't get it back in ...any ideas? Looks like headers are too big or too wide but they are for this car

Welcome to stangnet
I will move this over to the tech section for your car and those people that hang with the same model you have can give you some insite.

Where is it hitting? You may need to clearance the k member a tad depending on header brand and size. Stock or aftermarket k member?

Seems to be last hurdle before it drops in
