I've had the same issue with completely different mounts. I finally had to raise the tail of the trans as I had mis-read and had about 5.5* of downward tilt. Its got roughly 3* now as does the rear. I may have to get the tall trans hump and raise it some more if I can't settle things down. I've read somewhere that on some vehicles for high speed you need closer to 1* of angle at both ends vs 3*.
