The race (ring thing) that came with your FSA headset has to be installed on your fork. Slide the race down on the forktube and hammer it onto that little thing. Make sure it is all the way on. Then grease your headset. ;)

That's what I'm getting at.

I think I figured it out. You didn't put a race on your inwards, then they didn't work with either of your headsets.
Then, you tried other forks, and they didnt work because they had a stock race and you were using an FSA headset.

Just put you bars on all the way down when your nut is tight.

Then unscrew it a little so it hits the bottom of the bars and the nut, can't really explain but try.

Yeah put your crown race on.

When you were struggling at that one point to get the fork around thats where the welds are probably hitting.
