I have the same issue. My oil pan is touching the steering rack. Trying to see how to lift the engine slightly. I am using cx racing mounts with the subframe weld pieces removed like vorshlag. I was able to move the engine back to the 3rd hole on the cxracing mounts, which is about 2-3 inches further rearward. But it involved cutting the valve cover and then using a 90 degree piece of aluminum to close the hole up(clearing the rocker) to clear the clutch master cylinder which was hitting the valve cover. Makes it so I almost don't have to have a gto shifter. I am using a t56 from an 02 Camaro. Hoping I don't have any weird vibrations when running soon.
