Trouble installing BB in truck

I'm having trouble installing my BB in my '69 truck
Using factory BB tower stands and using the correct engine side mounts.
Just doesn't seem to fit. Like the engine is a 1/4 inch too wide.
I can get one side to bolt up, but not the other. I can get close, just can't get both to line up.
I've loosened the stands to see if there was any play, but will only adjust front - rear.
Almost as if I shaved 1/8 off one mount it would settle in correctly.
Any thoughts or ideas regarding this ? Common issue ?

Thank you
