Got it. Looks like it's TOO flat, needs to be bent more to clear the lower section of the firewall. Was this a universal bracket, specifically made for the first gen Camaro?

Yes, It's made by Red Roberts as part of his Hyd Conversion kit. I also bought a DSE bracket which is the bent away from the firewall design to see if it was any better and it's just as bad. I'm at a complete loss here.
I broke out the grinder and made some modifications to the bracket set up.. here's where I ended up and what it took to get there.. It should work now.
Jody, wait...you mean to tell me all of the manufacturers have been lying to us all of these years when they have been saying, "direct bolt on and no modifications needed."

Nowadays it's becoming rare when something fits as described. I'm used to having to "hotrod" most parts.
