The body shouldn't be sitting on the 3/4-inch hood rails. It should be 1/2-inch or so above the rails. Cushioning material is provided in the kit for the gap. You'll have trouble with the hood fit and specifically the hinges if the gap isn't maintained. Among other things. Try mounting the body front using the holes provided. Don't make new ones. You'll probably need to reposition the radiator aluminum.
