Transmission mount/exhaust bracket interference

Anyone else run into this?

The front tab of the trans mount hits the center exhaust bracket. I confirmed the part numbers are coreect.

My tranny mount doesn't have that vertical piece on the side. You oughta go get another one and compare.

Neither the turbo 400 tranny nor the others look like that. Where'd you get it?
You can just go to your local parts store and pick one up.
take a peek:

The exhaust bracket isn't upside down, just the picture.
As said, that trans mount is strange looking. Sawzall off that thing that sticks up.
