Anyone raise the engine or thicker mounts?

Hi All,

Anyone raise the 2.0L engine on thicker mounts or adapter plates? I've got a modified auto trans (thanks to Wayne Presley for that) and getting ready to mate to my engine and start that portion of the install. I remember someone else doing an auto and the trans makes the engine tilt forward because of the differences compared to a manual trans. I guess I'll find that out in a few days but wanted to get a head start on thinking about this. I know someone modified the frame at the rear to lower the trans which would tilt the engine back to its original position, which is a possibility. But for now, has anyone raised the engine mounts to make the engine sit higher (for what ever reason) which would make the engine/trans sit more level. If so, how much can you raise it so it does not interfere with the deck lid, or anything else for that matter.

Thanks
Glenn
