My boss is in the process of putting an RB25 S1 into a 96 S14. Last weekend he got some of the wiring finished and the engine and trans mated.
However when he went to mount it, the trans mount lined up fine, but the motor mounts are being a pain. He says its like they're too short if he has the transmission bolted to the crossmember. He used these mounts

Is he doing something wrong? (i.e reversing right and left) or should he just invest in McKinneys? Just doing a visual comparison, McKinneys dont look like they're any different. Just wanting to get this thing in. Any input is appreciated.
