Default hood clearance issue for A&C kit

When I went to test fit the body on the frame prior to sending it out for paint, I noticed my hood hits my air filter. I have the engine placed right at 22 1/2" from the crossbrace and the engine mounts are centered in the frame rails. I have the engine sitting in the center of the slots, but i still need an 1" more. the engine is an 427 FE with M/R intake with an oval 2x4 air filter. It seems the air filter is hitting the front part of the hood scoop. I don't have any spacers between the carbs and the air filter base.
