Motor Mounts - Which to use

[jdbubb at verizon.net (Dan Bubb)]

I imagine your passenger side mount has collapsed.
If it's more than a couple years old it'll need to be replaced.

Hi Cathy.
Yes, I've loosened the mounts and resettled the motor, to no avail.
It seems my problems started when I replaced the header shortly
after buying the car.
But, I don't see anywhere that the header or exhaust is touching.
Cheers
Ed

I'm sure someone will eventually chime in, but my vibration issue was
improved hugely by settling the engine after I did my clutch. It must not
have been properly centred or something prior to that. So perhaps slacking
off the motor mount fasteners a bit and giving the engine a good solid
shake may help with the vibration issue.
