Default URGENT QUESTION~PLEASE LOOK !

Alright, we're putting the motor in our car right now. But we ran into an issue. We ahve a dual hump crossmember for the trans. But the mounts on the car are narrower than the bushing/mounts on the crossmember. Whats up with that ?


Also, the dual hump crossmember has two humps, one larger than the other. Which side does the larger hump go on, is it the driver side ?

PLEASE HELP !-Trying to get this motor in.


~Thanks.

look on the top of the crossmember for a r or l and that will tell you and the exhaust sits a little higher on one side than the other
