I'm having a problem with the motor mount on my new 300. I got the motor out of a 84 Ford van and I'm looking for help with motor mounts. It seems like when I try to wedge my motor mounts on it puts the motor too far to the passenger side. I guess I should say I'm using the mounts off of the van I'm wondering if I should take the perches off of the van and swap them. Ant advice or pictures of your 6's would help.
Here's a few pic of the motor

I thought a 6 did sit realy far off to the right.

I don't want to give em a heart-attack. That is what would happen if I answered the door in the buff. Heck it almost scares me to death when I step out of the shower and look in the mirror.~Mancar1~
