Curtis W. friends Cavi station wagon is a good example of a costom made x-over ment to clear a 5spd with the dreaded mount thats found on all j/L body cars with the 2.8s auto or 5spd.

The pistons have to come out. Im sure the piston rings are cluttered with siezed oil. You have to check the cylinder bores for cracks or excessive expansion.

I'd make a new x-over if that is a original TGP x-over. They are prone to rust, cracks, and leaks. Aws...
