Sorry to hear of your pain.....if its any consolation I suspect we are just the tip of the iceberg as far as Scott Mock's fabrication ability, or lack of, is concerned.
It's probably not what you want to hear but I think like myself, you'll be miles ahead by scrapping the subframe and using the C6 stuff with a frame from a reputable manufacturer, or selling the C6 stuff an going clean sheet. Its not worth your time, let alone the risk and liability of a having a failure. My frame was a absolute joke. The more I measured the more inconsistencies were uncovered, you'll fix one aspect and another will appear.
I must admit I did have a few doubts when initially considering Scott's designs, but the reputation he had on here at the time silenced those.....silly me. I was looking for a time efficient solution for weld in clip for an A Body frame, and he had one. You've got tons of good options for the F body - I'd be looking at those even if it means holding the project to get the funds together, you'll be much happier and confident in the end result.
All the best.
