A Hot bodies engine mount will move your engine forward 2mm to get better mesh.

I had the same problem or still have. The ACNCM mount along with the Pullstart assembly hit my bulkhead and my mesh was all wrong. It now sits at an angle. BTW Mine is the Picco 26.

You can also try the Nova mount, it has infinite adjustability but I have heard it is a pain the arse to set because you have to secure a nut along with engine mount screws at the top of the mount.

I use the nova rc mount on my savage and it's great for adjusting and yes it is not easy securing the screw and nut

The Nova Mount is cool but you are limited by the engine plate. To get the most out of the mount you would need to elongate the access holes on the engine plate for more adjustment.
Does anyone have any issues with getting the CB and spur to line up straight? I do

Here is how I set my mesh. First slip a strip of doubled over 20lb paper between the CB and spur. I tighten down my engine mount screws, and then back them out about a quarter turn each. Then I take a steel punch and with the flat end braced against the base of the engine mount, lightly tap with a hammer until my CB and spur line up and there is no space between the CB and spur, just the paper is sandwiched between them. Then I go back and tighten down the engine mount screws. Remove paper by turning spur. Make sure that when you tap the engine mount screws you only hit at the areas on the outer edges and not the middle section.
