Just ran into this when switching my 350 over from long style water pump to short style. Luckily, my chrome timing cover cleared, but not by much. They asked me at Summit if I was using the original plastic Vortec cover when I bought all these parts, and I said I wasn't. So they said it should work,
To answer your question, Richard is right............your problem is the timing cover. Change out the timing cover for a regular steel one, even a chromed one, and it should clear by about a 1/4 inch or so.
