Default First gen Camaro LSX/headers+Steering box

Do most of the aftermarket steering boxes clear LSX and long tubes headers?
Thanks in advance!

Some headers are designed for steering box, others for rack & pinion. You will also need to use the motor mounts recommended by whichever header brand you use. Best to match as much as possible together for least headaches. (headers/motor mounts/cross member/oil pan, etc)

Yep, best advice... buy them as a package, less headaches.
