you do know that the 2H does not sit straight in the engine bay??

the 2H runs on a slight diagonal from the front passenger corner back towards the drivers side,

im just wondering if u are trying to put the motor in straight?

i wasnt aware of this until i did an engine swap a few weeks ago, and noticed it before i pulled the motor out.

maybe thats the problem?
