Default Solid Motor Mounts-Header clearence Issues

I just installed some spohn motor mounts in my 2000 Trans Am and for some reason the motor seems to sit higher in the motor bay and the drivers side collecter is almost touching the floor pan.... Has anybody heard of this issue or had this issue?? By the way I have Pacesetter Longtubues

I had no issues with my Spohn solid mounts. Are you sure they are in right? There is a left and a right side. Didn't mean for that to be a smart-a$$ comment, please don't take it that way. The only thing that I realized after I installed them is it makes taking the trans out a little more difficult because the motor will not lean back at all.
