I'll hopefully be putting my motor back in next week if the parts get here on time. I just noticed a couple things. It's easiest to point them out here:

The adjustable nut labled B for the rear engine mount, is it only found on the front left side (left side meaning if you are standing in front of the sled)? I don't see one for the right side of the rear engine mount, is that correct? Or should there be one for the right side as well.
Then on the front right motor mount (again right if you are standing in front of the sled) There is a rubber washer thing that I can only see labled ONLY on the right side. Is that correct or should there be one on the left motor mount as well?
Thanks.

Yes the only adjustment for the rear bolt is on teh chain case side.
Yes the washer only goes on the clutch side, I have yet to figure out why its there.
When installing the engine set all mounts in loose, then tighten the rear adjuster nut to around 10ft-lbs, basically since I have never seen a torqe wrench that will fit in there I used the handle of my ohlins shock spanner wrench anda vise grip on the end and screwed it in failry tight. This centers the engine.
The front adjuster then just snug up by hand, I did this and my offset and C-C was dead on. (make sure you check this with the secondary tightend down.
On my 2nd engine pull I had the entire thing loose and the engine was stuck in there and wouldn't budge! It was I forgot about the adjuster nut I had tightend the first time, I loosened that and the engine then fell loose, that should give you a idea how hard to tighten. Have fun!
