Default Motor Mounts

Working on getting the motor mounts all lined up and the engine in and ran into a snag.

If you recall, I ordered a pair of your Dingo Double-D Billet 3/8 Aluminum LT Adapter Plates. I'm trying to mount them on the LT4 and I'm finding that I can't get the passenger side to fit -- there is the metal tube from the oil pan in the way (as shown in the picture).



I asked Dirty Dingo how this is supposed to fit. I'm thinking they will come back and say to replace the tube.

Also, when installing the motor mount on the drivers side (the Chevelle had a 396CI), the back part of the motor mount had a raised line, about 1/2" wide and 1.75" long between the two bolt holes on the top of the mount. This keeps the motor mount from laying flat.

Will need to work through this to get the engine mounted.
