I would think not.
It looks to be assembled correctly, but it seems to be preloaded rearward. What does the driver's side mount look like?
Drivers side is absolutely perfect.
New mount and bracket from engine-swaps in place.
How about a photo of the driver's side anyway? Humor me please, I am always curious when someone mentions something like "New mount and bracket from engine-swaps in place". I'd like to see what they built and how, and there's always the possibility they did something that would shift the engine a little.
That looks to be an original style mount at least, thanks.

Driver side, same car

Looks completely normal to me.
Look at my posted picture again.
Should not the whole mount ”rest” against the frame? 20% of it is hanging in the air rearwards right now and i have some kind of weird vibrations, both standing still in P and N and rolling in D.
This is my second engine with vibrations.
All mounts are new, u-joints new, driveshaft balanced, 383 with forged crank, neutral flex and damper.
This engine is newly rebuilt. Same vibrations as before with old engine.
No weights on converter. Tested two original 19 splines converters. Vibrations still there.
I tried another tranny.
Vibrations still there.
New sparks. New cables.
Tested with two carbs.
I imagine that something is not right here and that mount seems to be wrong part.

Okay.
The problem is solved after several years.
Engine mount was not the problem.
But i had a broken - and pretty new - tranny mount. Reinstalled my - very - old (55 years?) mount that is brick hard and wow...what a dream to drive compared to the new and broken mount.
I don’t know how or when, but i must have broken it by myself when i replaced tranny 3 years ago.
Just to order a new tranny mount so i can get it perfect.
Case closed.
