header problems


so i just put my shorty headers on my 92 gt yesturday and it seemed like it was going on fine.. so we start the ca up and i have a huge exhaust leak we made sure all the bolts were tight and the gasket was fine, also we checked the collectors and they were cranked on too. i was just wondering if ne one had anymore suggestions on what it could be im running out of ideas.
