I used the original mounts. Left side moved 4" - 100mm - forward. Right-hand side a little different approach. Still moves 4" but we had motor on hoist, lowered it into bay to ensure all was well. Tacked the right side mount to fit. That should do the trick. Of course moving things forward is important for the placement of the non-Series trans. With an LT77 or R380, without going forward, the stick encounters the seatbox. That 5th gear adds four inches to the overall length of the trans. Rearshaft pretty short as well. Offset the mount .5" higher in order not to conflict with the D1 axle diff housing fouling the lower pulley, hence tacking in place with motor in bay. I've seen some fairly grusome pics of chunks removed along pulley due to axle articulation. Also makes it easier to secure shock bolt as well, since they appear to want to share the same space. They do not, but it sure looks that way when you measure that second time. Same for left, looks like it will foul.
