All that effort to fit a rack that could kill you.
Just adding to the danger now?

Forgive me if I’m wrong, but that rack looks like it’s missing the additional hardware Surly issued to make it safe after the recall? If so, you should contact whoever sold it to you - or your nearest surly distributor if it was second hand - to get the extra bits sent to you. Better that than your face.

I used these successfully to create fork-crown mounts for a Surly rack on my Kepler.
They were pretty fiddly but super strong and worked perfectly. The only draw back is that it makes mudguards tricky and - when I took them off today - they had scratched the paint quite a lot so use the rubber protectors
*I realise that this is probably much too late to be useful
