When you do get clearance it will be very close. If you have correct motor mounts and SPACERS installed, with the large nuts loose and the trans mount loose, you can shift the engine slightly on the mount stands. If you still have the engine hoist on, lift the engine enough to make shifting easy. If not, you can pry between the motor mount and mount stand to twist the engine to the opposite side.
Hope this works for you.

Pull the header back out and dimple the tube. You only need 1/4" or so, and it won't hurt the performance one bit.

A very good option from Bob. I saw a video on dimpling header tubes. After marking the area, they took a round pipe, positioned on the header tube and hit the pipe. The dent takes the shape of the round pipe and not the hammer head. It looked like it was done at the factory.
