I had a lot of trouble making the bellhousing mate up to the block, until I found out why. Someone turned the transmission mount backward. The starter bolts were also mismatched.

The exhaust system is so over-attached (and it was done with broken engine mounts) that it made neutralizing the mounts difficult. But now all 3 are polyurethane, and the engine is level in the frame.
