Default K- member Help!!

I just got through putting in my flowtech headers. I have now realized that I didn't shave the K-member. I checked it and there is only about 1 cm between the header and K-member. Is this ok, or should I take the headers off and shave it down.

If there's that little space, you definitely wanna remove it and notch the member. Remember that the engine rocks and we all know that it moves more than 1cm in either direction.

However, I was able to notch the k-member without removing the header. I had an air saw though..
