Subject: Aligning engine mount bolts

    Anyone have any good tricks for getting the mounting holes to line up with the Barry mounts when installing an IO-550?  I'm afraid that if I use a big punch to lever the engine into place, it'll damage the threads in the engine "feet".  The holes are as much as 1/4" off, and even good 4-letter Anglo-Saxon words won't get the bolts to line up and get started.  If I didn't know better, I'd say the mount doesn't match the engine very well.  Now that wouldn't be possible, . . . . would it . . .  .?
