I just finished with my front sn-95 conversion and the drivers side wheel is fine perfectly flush with the fender but the passanger side stuck out a little bit so i went to go turn the steering wheel and one tire went to the right and the other left so they pointed at each other is that suppose to happen? how could i fix it? Why would the passenger side stick out more than drivers side?
Thanks for the help in advance.

It is WAY out of alignment, you need to get it to an alignment shop ASAP.

Yes. The SN95 spindles toe the wheels in a lot. You can eye ball it and get it closer by adjusting the tie rods, but it definately needs to be professionaly aligned.
