I changed the motor mounts on my bb. The new driver's side mount went in without a hitch. The passenger side mount was a different story. I can only get 2 of the 3 bolts to align with the block. The mount-to-frame bolts went in fine.
I have the front up on jack stands so the car is not level. I'm assuming that the slope has something to do with it, but I can't muscle the engine up hill to align the last bolt. I'm hoping that when I drop the car and start the engine, everything will align and I can jack it up and put in the last bolt.
Does anyone see a problem with that? I'm in the process of rebuilding the engine and I'm concerned that it may run rough until I can get the timing settled down.
