Did you happen to put in new motor mounts to? I installed poly mounts when I went to headers and the car rattles ALOT now. Try gringing at the K-member until the header clears. Mines hitting the body on the passenger side and i'm sure it isn't helping my situation.

Why is it hitting the K-member is what I want to know..you would think the Headers would be better. Who made them?

Does it vibrate at a certian speed?

It vibrates because your exhaust is coming into contact with a solid component bolted to the chassis.
