Default motor mounts

i have a 95 vette. just installed the motor. can the motor mounts be put on wrong? it seems like the motor is sitting too far to the right. my supercharger idler pully is rubbing against the a-air frame when i pull on the motor with my hand or make sharp left turns

The motor does sit more towards the passenger. Don't know why your rubbing now if you haven't before.

Don't know if this would cause your offset but there is a raised detent on the 3 bolt bracket that mounts to the engine as well as left /right marking stamped on them. The resilient mount portion has a notch in the top steel sleeve face for the thru bolt. If you pull back the heat shield material you should see it. Not sure after assy though. This notch mates and lines up with the raised detent on the bracket and helps keep the mount in position straight up and down and also helps when installing the engine to align with the frame holes. I guess if the notch/detent aren't mated/installed right and the bolt tight, the mount could possibly be allowed to swivel sideways a little ? Just my two cents.Hope this helps.
