Default Transmission mount doesn’t like up. BMR Engine and Trans K member

Alright guys pulled my engine and trans to drill the pan for my turbo oil drain. Figured I’d put some solid motor mounts in as the turbo piping is all pretty tight.

well got it back in and the trans mount is at least a 1/2 off. I put the transmission on the motor outside the car. Converter is fully stabbed, bell-housing is flush against the engine..... engine K member is in the car straight (impossible to get that wrong lol).

Any help is appreciated!! TIA

car is a 2000 ws6

BMR engine K member
ICT billet motor mounts
bmr th350 K member
Energy poly trans mount

Solid mounts. They are machined straight and true


It’s way to the passenger side

Here you can see it’s a full hole to the side

Didn’t see this till now. I’ll call tomorrow when your offices are open.

Triple checked the motor mounts last night... Then I even loosened every bolt on the k member, trans k member, and motor mounts last night and put a little 300lbs chain hoist from the k member back to the 3 point subframe connectors. Could not pull it any straighter.

In the middle of fixing this ****. I’m going to do everything in my power to prevent anyone from buying anything BMR for the rest of my life. Total bullshit. It’s so far off that I can even believe it.

Do not buy anything bmr.

I ran into the same issue. Ended up hooking up a ratchet strap sideways to the lift, and heating up the engine mount stands with a torch and twisting them to get trans to sit correctly, rediculous.

I'm confused...is the only thing you changed the solid motor mounts? Was the k-member/trans x-member/trans mount already in the car?
