Header Hitting Frame

[mtalley12]

So I am in the process of installing headers. The drivers side always a breeze but the passenger side completely different lol. I have gotten the stock manifold off and removed all the studs to make use of header bolts, but the header is contacting the frame to the point where I can’t torque down the bolts. Is there any way to gain additional clearance? Only looks like I need a couple of inches. Currently have both motor mount brackets out and the motor jacked up.

I actually loosened up the two nuts where the trans mounts to crossmember to help let the engine move a lil more. Maybe by loosening then you could push the engine over just a bit. I dunno, what brand headers are they?

I will definitely try that later today, and I got a set of used Texas speeds
