Also, what is the best way to move the engine left or right? So far with my engine still supported at the oil pan, my header seems too close to the frame rail, with just over 1/4'' of clearance. The top part of the header touches the AC line with my engine raised too. I wonder if the frame rail will touch the header when I lower the engine back down.

I have about 1/4 inch of clearance on the passenger side also, moved the a/c bracket line forward one inch for addition clearance. The engine will not rock side to side. You'll be fine. I have about 1/8 clearance on the steering shaft which is fine as well.

I thought I'd share some victory pictures here because I'm a noob and this is the thread I read to help me install my headers:

Are there any pros of using the provided bolts with the headers? It appears that it would be easier to use the pre existing studs.
