People with SLP headers come inside plz

I just installed my 1 and 3/4" headers tonight. I noticed that the #8 spark plug actually rests on the header. Has anyone else ran into this problem? If so, Did you just dent the tube to take care of the problem. Thanks alot

Plug #8 is cake with L98 angle plugs ....



When I had these headers with standard straight plugs I used Accel shorty plugs and had zero clearance problems. I don't have a picture of that setup though.
