Thank you. Hope you're right in my case. On a positive note, the new engine mounts appear to be fine (but car is still up on jack stands). I used some torque specs shown by Pelican Parts in their engine mount DIY.
That said, I'd gladly put the old mounts back in if it would guarantee me success with the gasket
Thanks for subframe torque specs. 80 ft lbs it shall be.
