yes steering goes through the header.

Here are a couple of pictures from a couple days ago. Too bad you hadn't asked sooner. I could have taken better pictures for you. These are hooker headers, but I'm sure yours are similar. Three tubes go below the drag link, one above. You'll need to knock the joint loose at the drag link and pitman arm, and either the inner or outer tie rod end to slide the headers in.

I installed the same headers 4th of july weekend. Fit great. My header gasket does have a small leak though. If you take any of the studs out run a tap threw them as the bolts in my case went in further than was threaded.

i read on the directions on the later model heads which mine are (86) you have to tap and plug the smog holes that may be where your leak is!
