Default centerbolt conversion not fitting

So i know there are alot of threads about this and i read for an hour and cant seem to find anything to address the issue im having. i bought a set of 5.3 truck heads and had them reworked by texas speed. i also purchased center bolt valve covers with ignition coil brackets and coils but they dont fit. they are hitting the fuel line connection on the driver side. the coil packs look different then what were on the 98 car before but i tried to switch over the coil packs from the 98 and they don't seem to match up on the centerbolt ignition brackerts. I am running a ls6 intake manifold and stock fuel rail. Is it possible to bend the fuel rail to fuel line fitting?

I have the same problem, at the moment I just have my coil brackets connected to the fuel rail via zip ties lol. I think it's probably the truck valve covers? Idk what actual covers I have tbh.
