I just installed a alu.radiator and elect. fan and notice the engine was off center to passenger side, is this normal? or do I have a bad motor mount?

Is it leaning or do you think it's off center Right to left, etc.?

In my 77 2dr Granada, the 302 sits nice and level but off center by about 1 in toward the passenger side.
I think that is what's intended.
cheers, Ralph

The engine is leaning, and it is about 3/4 inch out of plumb.

Yes - that could very well be a mount that has collapsed. When you rev the engine, is there excessive torque movement as well?
I have one set of used 302 mounts out of a '77 Granada that I was keeping for a V8 conversion but no other spares.

Does that mean that the set you have is a spare or a keeper? ;D
