we installed the motor mounts and found that the headers would not sit right as it needed some sort of shim... as we didnt have any we added wide washers to act as the shim... will this cause motor flex or other problems?

ALso a bigger problem is that we jacked up the transmission to remove the tranny mount and heard a slight crunch, then swapped out the old mount with the new poly one and added the "pre load plate" which looks more like a shim and it now stands taller than the old mount did. Once we tightened all the screws we tried the shifter and noticed it is VERY DIFFICULT to move the shifter. Is this likely due to the higher hight of the new poly tranny mount?...should we remove the plate that came with the mount to lower it to normal height? Did jacking up the tranny cause something to bend or get severely f'd up?
