header/steering shaft clearance issue...

95 lt1 camaro. pacesetter midtubes with a y. bank tubes 3 and 5 hit the steering shaft so bad, i can't get it back on. do i have a shi....defective header? its not like minimal either. i am nowhere near the rack or column. i can get on one side and thats it. its almost 1/2" from the rack if i connect the column first. i buzzed a little metal off the shaft and it still hits bad. i tried pulling the collector away from it with no results. i was considering notching the tubes but i really don't want to restrict the flow so close to the head. any ideas out there? are there custom steering shafts available? oh and bank tube 5 hits the lower mount for the u-joint while bank tube 3 hits the sleeve that connects to the lower portion of the shaft. i think i'm SOL!
