When you ordered the overdrive, did you tell Sue Mitchell it was for a Victoria? They offer a special unit for the Victoria that sits 4.5 inches further forward than their standard model. They also machine the top rear corner off at an angle to provide more clearance.
If you have the special unit installed you can do two things to help the situation.
1. Replace the rear 8-leaf spring with a 10-leaf. It will provide a little more clearance.
2. Glue a strip of 1/4" inch thick rubber along the machined top corner of the overdrive unit. It will cushion the blow when you bottom out.
You can also remove the dropped floor pan, it comes out fairly easy and have it sectioned and welded. I have a Ryan overdrive in my Vic and that is what I had to do.
