I'm kind of embarrassed that I don't know this off the top of my head and that I didn't noticed when I did my swap. My engine doesn't appear to point straight back down the car. I know it's offset to the passenger side like it should be. Should it also point straight back?
My subframe is square. I double checked that before I did the connectors. All I did when I put my engine in was drop it in place and flip the transmission mount pad upside down. I'm fairly certain I didn't change it's location side to side but that was four years ago now so maybe my memory is fuzzy. Since looks can be deceiving, how can I verify if it is pointed straight back or not? Plum bob the crank pulley and drive shaft yoke and verify offset measuring between the frame rails?
Thanks

Should it be though? I thought the tunnel was centered with the car and that because of the offset to the passenger side, the tail shaft, drive shaft, and pinion gear/rear end yoke would be offset in the tunnel as well.

Leave sleeping dogs lay...if theres no real issues pretend you know nothing about it. I do believe that it does have something to do with balance of driver,steering,brakes etc. The off set helps balance the front end weight
