Spoke too soon yesterday......After getting the engine in place yesterday I only got one bolt thru the motor mount, the other one wouldn't go in......at that point I had had enough, but after coming in and looking at this picture, I noticed that the engine was tipped to one side slightly........I thought I would just have to influence the engine slightly to get the bolt in.....so , today I get the car up on the lift so I can figure out the trans mount.......After getting the trans jacked up and in position, I went to get the second motor mount bolt in.......Darn!!....the engine is sitting on the Oil Pan and not letting the mount come down for the bolt to go thru......Time to re-invent the wheel.......So......I'm gonna have to make some new adaptor plates to move the engine up about a 1/2".......I knew this was going too easy..........But!!!.....It's all part of the process......

Try the bigblock engine pads, they fitted better when I did the swap. I think that they are a little bit thicker than the ones you got from China.
