If you are talking about motor mounts, I doubt very much that is a problem. Just have the rear side pipe mount attached to the floor loosely. Then weld up the bracket ... and tighten the bolt.

About the only thing that I could see that might help is loosen all of the header bolts and then wiggle the side pipe up or down to make the fit better. Then re-tighten the header bolts.

Better yet ... replace the cracked mount. Tack weld the old brackets back together. Heat up the bracket and bend. Bolt it up to floor ... tack weld gussets to existing mounting brackets. Remove rubber mount. Weld new gussets. Reattach everything.
