SLP headers, AFR Heads, and long sparkplugs

my sparkplugs dont clear my SLP headers. The heads are AFR angle plug heads. They take a gasket type 3/4 inch reach spark plug. Accel claims they don't make a short plug with a long thread reach. It fits really s---ty. Can I actually dent the headers enough or should I just sell the heads or the whole car or the headers? 355 aluminum heads 82 trans am 700r4 4.56 gears slp headers and flowmaster exhaust never used cause the headers dont fit!!!
