The standard mounts raise it 1/4-1/2". I had to rework my JLTII to get it off the hood liner after the mounts even without all the engine movement the stock mounts had.

The ones sold for supercharged cars have the aluminum "puck" cut to increase hood clearance.

Sounds like you have the supercharger mounts.

PS with the design of the Prothane Mounts is may be possible to cut spacers to adjust mount height.
