Default Re: Motor mount issue

Problem solved!! I got the Moroso shims (thanks Eric) from Summit. Just one 3/16" shim under each motor mount, raises the motor about 1/4". I used the 3/16" and the 1/16" under each motor mount, and it raised the pan off the frame about 3/8"--7/16" plenty of room now, and fan is also centered in the fan shroud. I also gained some clearance where the manifold came close to the power steering box. The left valve cover is ok, but only about 3/8" away from the brake booster. Typical Nova/Camaro thing.......Scratched the heater cover. No big deal with the nose still off the car...that will be fixed tonight....Thanks SYC!!
