Edelbrock Heads in way of pump

I installed some Edlbrock heads on my 68 small block and found the fuel pump does not fit now. I am in the process of grinding down the head to make it fit. I contacted Holley, Carter, Edelbrock, and Mr. Gasket for help regarding this. Has anyone found this? I was told the heads were for a 455 and hang off the block about an inch, not letting the fuel pump clear. If I run into a water jacket I will have the head welded. Since they're aluminum it is not a problem. I just thought it strange that they could sell the heads that fit my 350 and not have a warning or a solution to the problem. When I called Edelbrock they were like, "We don't know what to tell you".
