Any chance the mounts are reversed, e.g. mounted on the wrong sides of the engine?

I remember seeing a build thread with some pictures of a Terminator build. Not sure if that will help?

Appears they notched the 4" cross over tube.

I have a 98 svt in my mk iv, which is essentially the same block( as far as mounting points). I had to put .5" spacers between the mounts and the block to get the engine sitting properly. This, however made it near impossible to route the dipstick tube. In your photo, it almost appears your engine should be farther back.
