Congrats on getting one side in. Worst case, you can unbolt the motor, raise it up with an engine crane and fit the header in loose and then put everything else back in place. A bit like fitting a jigsaw puzzle together and certainly a 2-3 person job. A pain in the a** for sure, but that's worked for me in the past when I did not have access to a lift.

When I installed headers in my 72 BB Chevelle, on the drivers side, I had to remove clutch linkage, oil filter, steering box and shaft, remove both front motor mount bolts, and jack up the engine as high as I could, to get clearance to fit without bending or dinging. Was still a battle, this was with Hooker Super Comps, 2" tubes.
