Is it quite possible that the rear end was replaced in your car at some point? The V8 and 4 cyl rear ends have different length torque tubes, the 4 cyl torque tube is some 2" shorter than the V8 one. Perhaps that is what is pushing your engine so far forward? I believe the V8 tt is around 60 (plus a fraction) inches long, the 4 cyl is around 58 (plus a fraction) long.
