Has stumpy thumbs, Speciaized are so weird
I suspect this is the likely scenario. Worth a try on a lower-profile adaptor, they're only $a few.

IS tabs are standard as far as spacing goes, but can be placed at different heights on the frame or fork depending on the manufacturer's minimum rotor size spec. Adapting for a larger rotor requires both lifting the caliper further from the frame/fork, and tilting the caliper forward lengthwise to match the rotor curve.
Just confirmed the IS mount holes are on a different radius between the frames. Learn something new every day.
Caliper seems to be out by 10mm so a PM160 rear adapter should sort it out from my guess

Have you got one? I reckon some of us might have one in the parts bin, I know I used to...

Should work a charm, the radial difference between 180 & 160mm rotors is exactly 10mm.

That would be me, yep.
If someone has one that is no longer required it would help a lot

After reading your thread it would seem that our issues are similar yet different.
Interestingly, my sliding dropout Marino hardtail had a warped brake mount which caused some grief, particularly since it is alloy and the only other person I have met with a Marino (which was years ago now) also had a problem with the rear brake mount.

Yeah seems to be a bit of a theme. Interestingly the first frame I had didn't have any issues, at least from memory.

Doubt you'll get anywhere, but try sending an email and pics to them. Surprising how often this is to result in a credit certificate being issued.

Maybe I should be one of those a-holes that shuffles through all the bread and make a mess.

that's what your hands are for. Something wrong with your hands too?

At first I thought they looked like dancing sheets, the more I studied them though they have a dancing penis look about them.
Enjoy every mouthful of that sandwich

No, that’s a standard shock in a Specialized yoke.
Beware of custom lengths and strokes though.
What exactly is the bike?
