I have a set of bbk ceramic coated headers installed in fox and they are rubbing against my steering rack...anyone else run into this problem? If so, what did you do to solve it?

It's rubbing on the rag joint on your steering shaft. You can replace it with a new shaft without a rag joint for upwards of $179. I just ground mind down around the rag joint so it doesn't rub any longer
