Default Huron Speed driver header hitting frame box

99TA with poly mounts and BMR, installing Huron Speed A/C retaining kit.

Drivers header installed is so close to the box frame at the front (where the clamp goes to attach the crossover pipe) that there's no way to get the clamp on the pipe. I can't even fit a finger between the header pipe and the box frame. The clamp thickness is larger than the gap between the header and the box frame. I'll try to get pic when I can. Considering taking BFH to the box frame, anyone else have to do this? Car is a beater sloppy inspired, looks are unimportant.

Thanks.

Just to close out the thread, BFH did the job, didn't take much to just put a dent in the boxframe large enough to slide the clamp past. Large chisel and less than 10 hits.
