Lower engine mounts for 350

I have a 91 with 70sbc 350.
the current engine mounts engine too high where my air cleaner is shoved into the hood.
i wondering what kinds should I use to make it lower to allow sbc to fit inside of the engine bay properly .
i have a edelbrock torker 2 and 1406 carb.
and I believe it’s a standard 3in air cleaner .
i cannot put a wing nut on top of the air cleaner stud to have it in place either

Just stock one.
would polyurethane or solid be better?
im doing complete build on a budget but also trying to fix potential issues before pulling and rebuilding engine (only have 530 to play with)

You need to get the numbers off of the calm shells that are currently in your car.
