I don't think so, my crx had a sohc, with a blox mani for a while, it was real close.
Maybe your mounts are bad or you need aftermarket ones.

Yes. Move the engine forward, Use a shorter manifold, use a 45 degree throttle body spacer.

I think banging a bit on the firewall is the simplest way.

what mounts do you have now? you can always upgrade to harder/stiffer inserts.
