Gas in the oil from my holly sprinkler. I did not know standard procedure was to lift the motor off the mounts to install headers but i was considering it. Problem is i don;t think i can get my hoist in the garage its to small to get it around the car which is on stands and the rear end is still apart.
My motor is for sure sitting low looks like the framestand motor mount is sagging where it hangs off the back of the engine cradle, so i assume the brace you mentioned is also missing. I did put a jack under the motor and after a lot of trouble i finally got the new used header in place. I will do some research to find the motor mount brace you mentioned. Being my first Pontiac I am not familiar with it. I did also notice the oil pan is incredibly close to the engine cradle.
