I'll probably have to do something similar with my corvette headers that i got since they are made for lhd. I've not got around to even test fitting them yet because i suspect i'll need belt them into shape to clearance the steering shaft.
I guess if u just need to squash a pipe down to make some clearance u could heat up with an oxy then use a bench vice.
I might have to try this with a broad propane torch and knock a piece of similar pipe with a flat block of steel or try other methods to gauge the feasibility in the quality and look I am looking for.
