1st gen Camaro subframe
Trying to attach my gearbox to the subframe and the replacement bolts i ordered are too long and bottoming out on the gearbox. This was a replacement subframe that came with the car. I don’t have the original to compare to. Should I have different length mounting bolts? Or possible the wrong subframe. I had to cut off these tabs next the engine mount pads to install my swap mounts research shows it may be a nova subframe. Just wanna make sure this is gonna work before I get to too far along and get the correct bolts

So I have a feeling I may have been sold the incorrect length bolts. Can anyone confirm bolt length?

I recently completed same project on a 67 F body, same steering box, which is probably identical to the nova subframe, mine was missing a bolt, so I just measured from the frame to the tab on the steering box, and took an existing bolt to the hardware store for the tread size, and grabbed a gr8 bolt, painted it black and it worked perfectly
