the left motor mount tearing from the torque

How far is it before the fan blade bites the radiator?

Engine just torqued over sideways, no fore-aft motion that I knew of. Knew it had ripped when letting off the gas and the engine kept howling. Pucker time.

Recalled seeing super stock drag cars with chains aroung motor mounts. understandable safety measure. Had no funds at the time, lucky to have a buddy that had access to a lift and could swap out the mounts real quick.
