The first photo is the right side. Notice the position of the rectangular hole and in the motor pitman arm. The motor drive bracket is down allowing the view of the pivot shaft.
The second photo is the left side and shows the motor drive bracket 180 degrees opposite the right side and does not allow a view of the pivot shaft. Do I need to rotate the motor on either side? Photos were taken with the buckets closed. No power to car yet. I'd like to finish this up today. If not I'll call Detroit Speed in AM. Thank you in advance

I don't think it matters, but you could rotate one to match the other if it makes you feel more comfortable.

I matched mine during the install.

Which way did you match them. As my left or my right with buckets closed.
Thank you,
