I have Patriot headers also and power steering. They do hang low on the driver's side. I raised the front end a little and I haven't had a problem with ground clearance since then. I also changed over to a mini starter which I really like. They seem like a quality header… Except for how the passenger side pipes angle out for apparently no reason so I had to make a couple of sharp turns in the exhaust to make it go through the cutouts in the transmission member.
