What mounts did you use? The original mounts allow it to flex a fair bit. Aftermarket (performance) mounts are made to get rid of that flex. For teh real heavy performance there are also "Solid" mounts.

Yes, the motor will move with factory mounts, and less with the poly mounts.

You just have to be careful with poly and solid mounts, you can break your trans case if the torsional forces get to much. That is why the factory mounts give. (and to reduce engine vibration transfer to the body)

I would have somebody rev the motor while you are watching the mounts to see if you can pinpoint exactly where the "give" is.

Did you check/replace the trans/t-case mount??

i replaced all the mounts the engine mounts give a little but the frame also moves a little when i put a pry bar on it i can lift the engine about 1 -2 inches the passenger side exhaust manifold hits the firewall

Sounds like you either have a crack in the frame or body mounts are shot (keeping you body close to the bellhousing of the trans).
