The trans Dapt mount kit says it will utilize the stock rubber motor mounts ?? Will the headers clear the stock motor mounts ?

the trasdapt kit is the one I put pic of on here, it mounts to the front of the engine and has a mount that goes above steering box and behind the idler arm/top of frame, they do NOT use the stock rubber mounts but have a rubber mount pad that goes between the new mounts to absorb vibration, has nothing to do with the stock side mounts.

This Vega V8 kit includes all the hardware and brackets along with the rear cross member to put a small block in a Vega. It will utilize the factory rubber cushion mounts on the engine along with the trans cushion of which both are not included. It does have notations that it doesn’t work with angle plug heads, power steering, power brakes, air conditioning, or a power glide transmission.
