Lt1 motor mount
 
Ok, I'm doing a lt1 swap?? So set motor down on mounting brackets and it's off, off meaning twisted...

The bracket on the right side lis flipped to the back, so there is more clearance for the a/c compressor. You will have to move the passengers side frame stand back accordingly, or ditch the a/c compressor and flip the engine side mount forward. On my '79, whoever started the swap put the compressor high mounted using Alan Groves brackets, to this was avoided.

Yes. Rotate it 180 degrees forward.
