<VV> 1964 Spyder powertrain install

Replace the mounts.  The one bolt on the driver's side is hard to get to but not impossible.  I used a torch on an old wrench to bend it just right to reach it.

I bought new transmission mounts to use but they were difficult to get at even with Clarks tool so I have run with the old mounts which appear to be ok.
But the fabric strips on the left side are aligning about half an inch below the left side rail as though the left side of engine needs to come up half an inch.
My question is should I be looking to get both sides of fabric seals to align flush or is the above situation something I can run with.
I would appreciate any comments from past experience of which I have none.
