Before I left, I was able to get the bolt 3/4 of the way through. The rear side of the mount is still off about 1/4". If I stuck a punch or something in the hole, I was able to twist the insert and get it to line up, but as soon as I let off pressure, the polyurethane insert would just twist back (I assumed it probably wasnt good to have it twisting like that anyways). Yes, I did end up loosening the drivers side mount in hopes of allowing for more movement. I guess i'm just going to have to keep playing with it to try to get it to line up. Its closer than it was when I started....I just cant believe it got that far off..

First lesson learned, never expect an LT1 related project to go as planned.
But you are getting there, just keep at it, sounds like you will have a fresh start later so you should be able to knock it out.
