Try loosening the header bolts on the manifold a little to give yourself some more wiggle room to line everything up if possible, then once you have it all semi put together, tighten everything down starting with the header bolts....that helped me line my headers up pretty easily, but I'm not so sure about the ones you have here, there may still be issues
