Used some 1/4" steel stock for trans mount shims. Good way to tell that you have trans & engine at the right level is that the sidepipes are even with the body.

BTW, the OEM trans crossmember needs a bit of reinforcing at the welding shop before installing. It's pretty flimsy and will crack and break, the first time you bounce it. Just making a new one out of 1/4" stock would be an even better idea. Grade 8 hardware loctited in place also a good idea.
