no idea... i have pacesetters on mine and never had this issue... i say just check the way everythings welded together.... maybe your exhaust is offest to that side so much when it got welded together the header got pulled that way a lil bit... just an idea.

i second that the last thing you want to do is screw the sterring linkage up just to install headers. return them and tell them they dont fit maybe you got a bad set or the wrong year?

Yea, so basically the same headers. You could've just cut off the emissions provisions or welded a plate on it.
Example for 97-01 Vettes, other than the angle of them for picture, look at the difference.
"Race"
Emissions
Conlusion: There is no reason they should hit and you wasted some money
