Yup. That's correct. I had initially installed the plates with the two bolts to the top, and the headers (Dynatech) were hanging too low with DSE LS motor mounts. I scraped the driveway every time. Flipped the plates around (two bolts to the bottom), and gained all the clearance I needed.

Before.



After
