Shorty Header Clearance?

Shorty Header Clearance?
For 94 Mustang GT
I haven't had much time to read back into a lot of threads, and most of them are from 06, i just got a pair of BBK's shorty equal ceramic headers that I plan on installing this weekend- and I'm not sure if the header design has changed (since '06 and '07)to avoid rub with the steering shaft. And i just wanted to know if I will just need to adjust or replace motor mounts to make these headers get clearance. I want to know before i take the stock headers off and leave my commuter car jacked up while waiting for motor mounts to arrive if changing them is necessary.
so the basic question- will i need to adjust the motor mounts, or replace them with some solids... say from American Muscle?
Thanks in advance.

When I put bbk Shorty headers on my 1995 mustang gt I had to un bolt the motor mounts and jack up eachside of the motor seperate from the car to get them to slide in there because its a really tight fit. Both headers went in from the top. On the passenger side the header on mine does touch a a/c line. Different motor mounts may be neccessary to get perfect fitment but my install worked out fine.

people have header to steering shaft issues if they buy cheap, ****ty headers, or ones that dont fit their year range.
outside of that, when people have steering shaft clearance issues, its usually because their motor mounts are shot
