a lot of instructions say you may need to dent stuff in a little bit to get a good fit.

passender side is always the easiest..
the engines are offsetted to the passender side to make room for the steering and etc.

on my 318 in my m body the headers hit on the wheel well on the pass side. i cut out a section of the inner fender and made a new panel that bubbled out towards the wheel a little bit. fits great now. i had to dent one of my tubes to get it to fit with my power steering on my fifth ave.

I'm pretty sure I have Hedman ($99.00 Summit brand ones) in a 76 Volare with a 98' 5.9 in it. When I tell you that they "fell" in, I'm telling you that they didn't even have a scratch on them when I was finished. I did put a manual steering box in it tho.. Oh yeah, I ordered the headers for a late A body...
I've got those same hedmans in my 5th ave, fit no problem. I did tweak one pipe slightly on the drivers side, as it was awefully close to the starter. summits I think are made by flowtech, but same design, except the hedmans have a 1/4" flange, the flowtech/hooker/dynomax/summits all have 5/16". and the new hedmans have a ball collector.
if you're hitting the steering, make sure your engine mounts are good and not sagging, or try shim underneath them to bring the motor up a skoash?
