You purchase just the cowl or a full hood? Try the original if you got a full hoof. Then you should be able to judge if the new has an issue.
Hood Won’t close all the way

If you got just the cowl and install it onto yourhood the process could have changed the fit. By heating it (welding) or pressure on center with it on uneven surface.

When I installed a cowl hood on a buddy's truck I ran into the same thing. It sat WAY higher. I had to adjust the latch pretty much all the way down.
You want to be careful adjusting as you don't want to get into a jam where you can't open the hood because it's in a bind. In cases where the latch needs extreme adjustment, I remove the grille so I can still access the latch to loosen bolts if needed.
