Default 67 camaro steering linkage clearance

Hey guys! I have a 67 camaro with a lq4 and autokraft pan. My steering is stock manual steering and I have carshop swap plates. My linkage does not clear the autokraft pan. It's hitting on hard turns. Any ideas? Looks like the motor needs to go back more, but I'm not sure.

I used 1" setback plates on my install. I see the ones you used are not. The autokraft pan info says your combo of parts should work?? Maybe your frame stands are mounted further forward? They can be moved a bit.

Well, I figured it out. I ordered the correct mounting plates (1" setback) from Carshop inc (part #2370), but they shipped the incorrect ones. I was shipped the no offset plates. I will call them tomorrow and see what can be done. Thanks for the reply!
