Default EF with B18a1 rubbing crank pulley....help please?

I took my Unorthodox crank pulley off(single slotted) and put on a stock b16 crank pulley with three slots so i can run my a/c and just realized it has been grinding against my left radius arm when i turn right hard or go over bumps.
the arm misses my oil pan but hits the pulley on the second slot of the pulley where the ac belt goes. How has anyone fixed this or does this not happen to anyone?
i've got place racing mounts and it's a 90crx that's lowered.
thanks for the help

Same thing happened to me with my ef9...but I had a B20 pulley on it. Swapped it with a B16 pulley and no prob...I think the hasport mounts place the engine higher. So no rub. Good luck man.
