The engine is getting closer to the project truck. It is time for me to really get into motor mount fab. My concern now is which would be best tilted the motor or transmission. I am using the GM adapter with the 400 turbo transmission. The P-30 tilted the motor 10 degrees. When I put the motor in my truck should I put it straight up which would put the transmission at a 10 degree tilt or should I mount it like the P-30 and tilt the motor and let the transmission level? I could split the difference and put them at opposing 5 degree tilts.
The pros and cons. The motor looks better straight up. If the motor is tilted it gives more master cylinder clearance and puts the turbo outlet a little closer to the bottom of the firewall.
What do you think??
