Headers From flow Tech

hey guys i dont relly visit that often, but i really got a head ache from think of this problem i have, i will describe it the best i can, and if you can help that would be great!

Long flow headers, from the tranny hump in the floor, theres a piece that looks to be a frame but isnt. its where you tranny crossmember bolts to, well the adapters you get to hook up your exhaust from the header doesnt line up with the passenger side header, and the floor pan thing gets alittle narrow as it goes back well my header is right against that piece and it look to be that i need to bend the header toward the tranny about 2 inches or so.. drivers side is ok.. but i had it jacked up on the passenger side so maby thats causing this? well i put a ramp under the pass. tire and jacked up the driver side like 3-4 inches off the ground, and still doesnt line up.. i am stuk in the pond... HELP! I Thank you for any help! Thanks again, Nick!

My flow techs passenger side collector rubbed the frame. i ground down the collector flange a bit, but it still occasionally vibrated against the frame. But, after i changed my motor mount for plain old stock replacements. It fixed the problem. i think if I had gotten the polymounts, which from what I've heard raise the engine up 1/4" more than stock, would have helped my cause even more.

Still, they're tiny, so I'm looking at LT's.
