Changed the mounts on my factiory V8 a while ago and had slots as you
describe. I found I had to insert one bolt and twist the block to use up
all the travel in that slot before I could insert the other bolt. Before I
tightened them down I repositioned the engine so that each bolt was at the
same position in the slot.
