Question Thicker motor mounts???
Hi all. I have a situation in which I need a couple degrees of pinion angle taken up. It looks like my toploader is about 0 and the salisbury is +3 (going up).

I could lower the back of the tranny or I could raise the engine slightly. I am hoping to kill two birds with one stone actually. I have seen thick (really thick) polyeurathane looking motor mounts in some of the photo gallery pictures over the years and am hoping an extra 1/4-3/8 in fron will get me a couple degrees in back while giving me a more stable platform for my 427.

I am using standard rubber 2240 /2241 style mounts from NAPA auto parts currently.

Thanks in Advance,
