Is the bottom of your sump level?
If the bottom of your sump is level & your carb is level then your engine is on a slant! ;)

If still you see it's too slanted check the engine cross member that when you dropped the engine you didn't check down there and it's lifted on the right side

Yeah its to slanted, I shimmed it on drivers side and it sits perfect. I think its the engine bracket on that side.
its for a 2tc, but I dont think it is for a 71-74 corolla.
does anyone have a pic of the engine brackets on a TE27/28/21?
