What I mean is that when you do the engine mounts, you'll want to loosen up the tranny mount bolts (so you're not twisting on it when aligning the motor to each mount).. .

...when you do the engine mounts, you'll want to loosen up the tranny mount bolts because if your transmission mount is new and you don't do that there's NFW you're EVER going to get the big bolt through there...
Another of the endless number of vibrations I got was caused by the engine pipe hitting the transmission support bar. The new mounts will raise the engine up at least 3/8".
I guess motor mounts don't have to necessarily be ripped to shreds to be bad.
