Yeah I know what you are saying about that subframe.I have been debating building one myself.Couldn't I get the same vibration dampning off that stock tranny mount and leave off the frame to crossmember rubber mounts?I think I could get most of the hieght needed this way.

The only thing that might be wrong with the drawing above is the bottom of the trans mount has to be the same height as the top of the cross member.
What ever you do decide, just tack it in place and try that first. ( car idle for vibration ) If you do not like it the tack welds are easy to remove. Just a thought.

Mine I used some 2"OD washers and no rubber mounts on the crossmember and it sits good now. 
Still have more work ahead of me tho.I want my 83 running before I touch that turbo again tho.
