T-bar question

I am working on a 70 dart. rebuilt all front end parts including the LCA. Replaced the torsion bars (old slant 6) with 340 bars. Passenger slid right in. Had a harder time getting the driver side in. Had to remove the a-arm bump stop. Problem is, I can not get the bump stop back in. there is not enough space to put it in. I thought after i installed the engine, it would drop enough. Doesn't seem to have moved at all.

When I check the clock position on the rear of bar, the line on the bar points toward the 2:00 position. On the parts car (71 dart), the line points more toward 10:00 for the same side, Driver side.

Do I have the bar clocked in the wrong position?
Thanks
