Ok, thanks, Jerry.
I think its the longer front beam on the left side, that
threw me. It gave the optical appearance of the engine being offset - I
mean really offset {:>).

Ed, two factors are at work. First the S-beam is
longer on the left side. The reason for this is to provide more room for
the exhaust INSIDE the motor mount tubes. On the right side, the S-beam
is shorter to provide more room for a cool side radiator OUTSIDE of the motor
mount tubes. Also, at work is the right thrust angle of 1.25
degrees. Despite the optical illusion, the engine is on the design
thrust line. Jerry

Nice work, Jerry.
Is it just the angle of the photo or is the pan is not
aligned with the mount? It appears cocked over to the right front of
the mount pretty far or at least there appears to be a lot more front mount
showing on the left side of the pan (photo reference)
