ZZ502 and Headers

Has anyone had any luck finding headers that will fit a new ZZ502 by cleasing the head bolts. I called Hooker and they said that you have to grind the flange off of the header to get it to clear.

The ZZ502 has oval port aluminum heads. The angle of the head bolts don't allow enough room for the flange to sit behind them.
