The plates have been known to leak(but not always) & you want the carb reasonably level & check your pinion angle.

Allen Here's a novel idea, let's not throw a bunch of parts at the car hoping it will fix the problem and instead spend a little time diagnosing it first. Life was a little easier when I was just a wrench.

While the motor is sitting there, you can make up the motor plate and tabs for the motor plate. Then it should be in the correct position. When all done remove the motor mounts. 548 cu. in., Bill Mitchell Aluminum Block, CRT 727 auto trans, Alston Chassis. 8.981et at 149.46 mph. 1.204et - 60 foot, So Far....
