SVMCOBRA,

I used the Ford motor monts as indicated in the assembly manual.
Part # D00Z-6038G. I purchased them at NAPA.

Note that the top of the engine should sit parallel to the frame you can get away with a slight downward angle of the transmission. I had to trim about 3/4" off the top of the transmission mount, which is the standard one supplied by SVM. I attached it to the frame with four 3/8" grade 8 bolts.

Center the trans. output-shaft laterally in the frame. You should be OK. I put my air filter on and laid a line level on the top of the filter. Actually my engine has a very slight upward angle. I personally don't think a slight angle would hurt a thing.

Good Luck
