Further update.

Darn it. Ramps are too short to allow me for a good inspection of the front motor mount.
I need to get the car lift. Wife may not agree...

Anyway, tranny mounts look OEM (aka original ones).
Engine mount - as I said - I could not reach it.

The intake and exhaust, both sides - they are basically spot on and they track right away. Barely any difference (0.5 degree?).

Misfire - from a cold start till a few miles after a full warm up with a couple of WOT at different RPM and steady states - no misfires at all.

Engine shakes like it was allowed to rock front and back. Sometimes it feels like towing a trailer. I guess GoPro like setup is needed. I might use webcam and observe it.

so, next step is the mounts.
