I'm still messing around with trying to fit my headers and it's possible (although not likely) that I have my engine mounts wrong?

Does anyone have good pictures of both sides?

Do you have the right headers? What are they? There's really no way the mounts can interfere. Not that A-Body headers are a joy to put in to begin with.
 
Hey, I thought your mounts looked different when you posted pictures last time, but it's always a little tough from a photo, especially when not focused on the mounts.
 
The driver side should have the mount stud near the front.

 
Ok....here is the passenger side

And here is the driver's side...

You'll notice it's a thicker mount I'm trying. ...I still have the original one I could put back but it wasn't working either. ..

Those don't look like A body engine brackets to me. I don't know about drivers, but pass side looks more like van / pickpup, IE way too tall
 
Oh, these are slant K member conversion mounts? Sorry ignore my post
 
Never know what someone has done. If it's a conversion package (slant to V8), hopefully it wasn't somebody's home craftiness that isn't correct size.

After trying again, I've decided I'm probably going to just massage the #5 pipe a little bit. It won't take much...A little nerve wracking amd a bit frustrating but not the end of the world.
A lot of guys have had to clearance their headers....I'm not alone!
