removed the motor from the top, trans from the bottom. i went to reinstall the motor today (with my new red poly motor mounts) when i set the motor mounts and engine into the fram its crooked. not by much maybe a half inch inch from one side to the other. how do fix this? why is it crooked

just read a thread about this in another section, and the fix wound up being loosening up the engine mount bolts, straightening the engine and retightening.

I had a similar thing happen, and loosened both the stands & mounts.
She went right in.

Anytime poly mounts go in they never quite line up the same.

if you were looking down on the engine bay from the front of the car, my AC pulley is closer to the radiator than the power steering pulley. vertically everything is gravy but horizontally is where my problem is

that's what i just found out. i loosened all the bolts on the mounts to the block and the mounts to the poly, pulled on the motor to get it into place, tightened down all the bolts. it looks better, not perfect but diffidently better. does it need to be perfect? if its close will that work?

I see that you got it.
Mine was just a bit off after retightening. The u-joint can handle it.
