I needed to raise the Engine about 5/8" to get the Pan off the Crossmember.....Rather than mess around with Frame mounts and Motor mounts, I decided to make new motor mount adaptor plates......because the mounts are on an angle and I wanted to raise the engine, I had to figure out how much to move the rubber mount holes and how much thicker to make the plate to get everything to fall into place.....here are some pic's

Store bought plate in black......you can see how the 3 rubber mount holes are moved down and the plate is also thicker



New plate mounted to the engine......




Rubber mount installed......



Engine down on the mounts and the holes line up perfectly....Just slid the bolts in....I love it when a plan comes together....






Pan not sits nicely above the crossmember.....



And sits perfectrly with the bottom of the crossmember



Also got my raised alternator mounting kit....
