Exhaust Troubles

i have an 86 camaro Z-28. i just put in a brand new 305ci engine in it and its got flowmaster short headers on it. the car is also a 5-speed manual. when we put the engine in the header on the passenger side pinched the fuel line shut, we saw it and cut it and put a braded fuel line in. the problem is that the fuel line and the hydrolic line for the clutch slave cylinder are both within 1/4 inch of the headers. I, and everyone i know, are at a loss for a solution. The headers dont seem to hug the engine well, is there a better brand that does hug well? has anyone had the same problems in the past and know how to get around them? would long headers do the trick? I would appreciate any help. Thanx sorry ur right they r flowtech headers, and the fuel line is flexible but we dont know where to go with it and the slave line is hard and shaped from the factory.

Flowmaster does not make headers. You need to find out what brand they are first.

Why can't you just move the lines? They are flexible.
