,...I don't know what kind of project it is
OK, perhaps I should have been more specific. He is building a Factory 5 Cobra replica. He installed a 5.0 from an 89 LX and used solid motor mounts.

Does this leveling technique need to be done when installing any engine? He told me it does or you'll blow transmissions. I'm on my third tranny now and this has me thinking. Granted, two of the trannies were pretty much junk, but I also hosed a brand new T-5 WC. That has me concerned. I had my engine rebuilt about a year ago and don't know if it was leveled. I'm not sure how much torque I have, but that was what I chalked up 3 trannies to until now.

Do I need to level my engine, or at least check to see if it's leveled?
