    Default engine mount hits on SC....what to do??

    ok fellas. im getting upset. finsished rebuilding the engine last week, all good, ready to put in car.
    last thing to do....bolt on SC. Not that hard i hear you say....
    Now, im using a genuine RWD inlet manifold and i had to lower the SC mount to make it fit. Thats all good, I can get the SC on and use the manifold with no dramas.

    The only problem i do have is that now i cant fit the stupid engine mount cause the SC is too low.... GOD DAMN IT. Its starting to annoy me cause this is the last thing i need to do before i can sit the engine back in its home....

    ARE YOU TOO GOOD FOR YOUR HOME???? (haha)

    What are some ideas or thoughts as to overcome the problem, and no i dont want to turbo it!
    All useful help will be rewarded, but dont post stupid s**t please

    i assume you don't want to change manifolds again, so....

    all you can do is either change the engine mount.. or change the SC mounting..

    post pics of how much it will interfere.

    nah i dont really want to use the original crappo manifold. i have already "modified" the engine mount to its limit.
    The only problem is that i cant get the top bolt in cause i cant angle the engine mount to sit flush on the block.....i can line the two bottom bolts up, but i cant do em up cause it tries to pull the mount and make it sit flush, but it cant cause the SC is in the way.

    ill try to grab some pics........
