Engine ?

The bolt hole should be closer to the bottom of the bracket as install on the car. 
Picture of the bracket with mount on engine here:

If the one in there currently is upside down, you're in for a big treat!

Threads are probably 8mm X 1.25 pitch. If they're stripped out you may be able to repair them with helicoils.
FLAPS may have them or you can order them from www.mcmaster.com

Hey there?.I just noticed that my new passenger side engine mount is set
inside the bracket differently than the original one.  The new one is set
with the bolt hole closer to the bottom of the bracket as opposed to the
older one being set to the top.  Which way is correct??  I purchased the new
mounts from a lister, and I am assuming they knew what they were doing?so
does this mean that my old mounts were set wrong??  Also, I seem to have
stripped crank shaft pulley threads so I can?t get the new bolts in for the
vibration damper.  Anyone know what I need to tap those holes?  Thanks

Was wondering how the belt tensioner goes onto the 16v motor.  I put mine on
and it doesn?t turn but the belt slides over it ok?.just wondering if it is
supposed to turn.  Also how tight should the belt be?  I?ve tried to tense
up that belt by pushing the tensioner up and away as best I can but is there
any specific way??  How do I get the crank and camshaft synched up?  I
turned the motor to get the 1st cylinder at top level, then put the
vibration damper on to its position and the cam was in position too?.but
when I put the belt on and turned it over the timing mark on the vibration
damper was off ?.I dunno wtf I am doing?.

I also mated up the transmission to the block and was wondering how I know
if the splines mated up ok?  The transmission went on?.does that mean its
ok????  Or did I just wreck the thing.  Please get back to me with
info?..much appreciated from you pro?s!
