Duster. I tightened the bolts with engine raised on that side and it just settled back down
 
Loosen the motor mounts on both sides and raise the motor a bit on the passenger side. I have had good luck with a floor jack and a block of wood under one side of the oil pan. As you raise the passenger side up, make sure the drivers side slides down a bit in the slot Lammio mentioned. It has always worked for me
 
how much of a tilt (degrees) are we dealing with. mts to rear of SB block ears I'm assuming. Any possibilty of a wrong mt? I'm assuming visually everything looks kosher on the sides? Just thinking out loud. post how it goes
 
Technically they are 318 mounts with a 360 block but only the drivers side is really different because of mounting point, i think that is all
 
I ain't positive but I'm wondering if one set of those type of spool SB mts for a particular app are taller/shorter than the others (318/360). all that is left is the height of the welded spool mt(s) on the k
 
Really? Nobody suggested power stalling it in reverse? You guys are slipping badly!

I found a temp. solution, hopefully it lasts until I purchased my HDK!
