Where are you having the isue? How old are the motor mounts? What kind of mounts are in the car? The more information you can provide the better. Or you can just call us at 1 704 768 2288. Thanks

unless the headers were dropped or something dropped on them or car was wrecked you should not have any fitment issues!!

I have the 1 7/8 stepped to 2" headers with the 3.5" collectors from kooks and am running a stock k member, but I have the solid spohn motor mounts. The only area that was tight getting in was getting the header to clear by the rear of the engine. The passenger side slid in with no issue, but the driverside was a real pain and took some time.
