For some reason my motor is leaning towards the back corner where the rear motor mount goes and sitting too close to the passenger side frame rails

How do I make stronger I need to make do it will hold up to a lot of power

I used a chain in the front. Never changed a rear mount. Chain wrapped around the exhaust manifold and then bolted to the subframe straight down. Just a bit of slack.

Ahh okay do you know why my motor would be sitting how it is ?

 

[SHOZ123]

I would assume the mounts are collapsed.

I replaced the trans mount I suspected the rear one cause I could move it a flat head screw driver

 

[SHOZ123]

Open the hood and put it in gear. Then brake torque it a couple of times to watch the engine rear back.

Car isn’t running atm I just put a new trans in

 

[SLOWgod]

You can see the alternator pulley scraping the rails

 

[SHOZ123]

Is the subframe centered?
