My new Thorley headers are will not fit right because they hit the ORD heavy duty front shackles I bought. I figure if I can bend them a little then I will be alright. It's either that or cutting off one of the three bolt holes in the collector flange.

Does anyone know if I can heat up and bend ceramic coated headers without doing major damage?

Thanks
