Darn oil pan

Wondering if something else is going on with my particular car because doesnt seem to be a widespread problem with other BB A-bodies on here.. If the engine could go back about an inch, it would line up the notch in the pan and the link but the engine cant go back any. I have more shims that came with the motor mount kit i may try but i dont know if i can get it that much higher. The 'bend' in the link where it bolts doesnt just stop when it hits the pan, it keeps riding up under the pan a little ways trying to lift the engine up until the steering hits its stop
