340 Exhaust Manifolds on Early A-Body??

We just put about 5 big washers under the motor mount (about 7/16 of a inch lift), but it may vary, and as far as I know there aren't any other ways other than shimming unless you can do a little grinding to keep it from rubbing.
Are you are using the '67-up motor mount insulators. If so, they are thinner than the correct '64-6 ones so maybe there is not much shimming needed? It looks like you could use some new ones anyway! :-). Judging by your column, it looks like the LH manifold would burn all the rubber boots/seals off the column.
