A pry bar might work good to get them in, but how are you going to remove them if you need to. I'm glad mine weren't put in that way.
A friend had the same problem with his Chevelle. When I stopped over to help, his looked just like your picture. It turned out he had the wrong motor mounts. They look similar, but BBC motor mounts are slightly different than SBC motor mounts. He swapped them out, and it went right in. Good Luck

I guess I must of did something wrong by slightly tweaking the stamped in China bigblock engine brackets , because the motor has been in and out of his car a few seasons now and the bolts seem to just slide right in. My guess is when the brackets were stamped as in most overseas cases, were a mile off. He ran the same style engine mounts as that are pictured but later switched to a Moroso solid style and guess what..they slid right in..
