TTI header clearence on a 65 Valiant

I have the Schumacher engine mounts,too.Not the poly loc ones-the standard mounts.
It looks like that the engine sits too high in the front. Not much but could be about 0.250" lower.
I will try to use 0.89" torsion bars and give the header tubes some hammer hits.
Building an early A-body is more adventure than 2 weeks alone in the jungle... :-/
