I read the other post you refered to, and the first thing that came to mind would be the trans mount. Just for laughs, take a look, It almost seems if the motor is "leaning back.
Just a thought. If it works, be sure to tell the guys in the other post .

yeah its energy suspension too, and its kind of tall, not short as well its just the way I took the pictures. It doesnt appear to be leaning back in person but if changing the mounts is what it takes then I guess I better get busy with a jack and buy some stockers?

I was using the Anchor brand mounts and never had any clearance issues. I had about 1 1/2" between the plenum and wiper motor.

I have the stock motor mounts and a poly trans mount. I had problems with the wiper motor hitting the superbitch. I removed the rubber grommets in the wiper motor and slid them on the bolt, so the back side of wiper motor is bolted directly to firewall. Worked pefectly.

There was atleast an inch of interference which has been reduced to about 3/4 inch by doing the bushing trick.

that is fine not critisism all help is welcomed. I have wondered if cocking the motor will help. maybe doing the regular trick on one side of the motor and the whole bushings under the feet on the opposite side. I will have to check for operational binding if it even works. keep the good ideas coming because even though you didnt recommend it, I got more inspiration just reading you guys posts.
