I don't know about the mac's. I have the BBK unequal shorties and the first set I got was tweaked and never sealed right. I sent them back to Summit and the new set fit fine. If I was going to guess I would say that the header is bent and won't seal right no matter what you do. Send them back for a new pair if you can. If I was going to do it over again I would go with the FRPP headers, as they come with the single piece flange, the BBK's only have the single piece flange on the chrome, not the jet-hot ceramic coated. I have also become disapointed with BBK quality and am considering anyone else before considering them for any part. Just my .02.
