You can use the phil option

superpose_ideal_ligand = *None all SF4 F3S DVT

to superpose an ideal F3S to avoid the mess. I'm also happy to take a closer look.

Cheers

Nigel

Have you seen:
Iron–sulfur clusters have no right angles

The Phenix F3S library worked well for our Complex II structures a few years back. And those structures definitely confirm that the angles are not 90* for F3S. (FES Fe2S2 has close to right angles, I think)
You have to be sure that the atoms are arranged in the same way as in the model or the restraints will try to invert your cluster;, and that the Cys ligands connect to the right irons.
