Default spohn solid motor mounts uneven?

i just installed the spohn motor mounts for my mock up. i notice that the mounts were different sizes. didnt think much of it but know that i have them installed the motor does not sit level. Is this normal or do i have a bent k member or something wrong with the mounts.

You sure you put the short one on the passenger side? When I put some in a customers car for the first time it was complicated at first but its defidently the the shorter one on the passenger side. If they are right then you have a problem and should send them back.

Mine is the same way also. I wouldn't worry about it if we all see the same thing. I also had to realign the base of the intake that covers the radiator so my lid would line up. Little things like that but not too big of a difference.
