I made a new perch (the flat part with brace that bolts to the crossmember) and I used modified factory 2004 yukon/tahoe mounts.
New perch:

You can see the unmodified mounts here:

I installed them on the engine and marked to cut them horizontal with the floor:

Then I just installed the cut mounts on the engine, set it on the new perches, adjusted the driveline angle, centered the engine, and tack welded the mounts to the perches. Once that was done I unbolted the whole kit and finished welding everything up.
I could even elongate the bolt holes in the new perches and give myself about 1-2" of front to back adjustment if needed...
Hope that helps!
