Default I need some ac/motor mount help

I got a swap from this shop that I thought was pretty good, but I'm starting to have my doubts. When they swaped my motor they forgot to mention that they had to weld the trans bracket (no big deal), but when I pulled the lower motor mount bushing I was surprised. I expected the mounts to be crap, but the stud on the ac bracket that the motor mount bolts onto are signifigantly different widths. See the chart...numbers 1,19, and 14.

I ordered a hasport ac bracket which is to use to mount a d16 series ac to a b16 engine. The olny thing is that it doesn't come with a stud (#19). I have my old a/c bracket from the d16z6 and the looks like it would fit the motor mount better than the the stud I'm presently using. Does anyone know if these studs are interchangeable?

Also when I pulled the lower bushing, I installed an energy suspension mount insert. Now, my car idles low and It seems to shake everything especialy the roof. I'm also experiencing shake on the highway. I thought it could just be unbalenced tires, but I took care of that and it still shakes. Any sugestions are welcome on that one.

Thanx for reading this story. Later.

mounts won't make your steering shake at 40-60, did you recently get new wheels?

I paid around $40 for my energy suspension mount inserts, but I'm still using the old morotmounts. New ones, I'm not sure, but probably expensive.
