Transmission movement!

Transmission movement!
This is kinda hard to explain and I searched but it's hard to know what to search for because I am not sure what is causing the problem.
The issue is that sometimes the whole transmission (shifter, housing, t-case, and all) will rotate clockwise (toward the passenger) about 10 or 15 degrees which will cause the engine to race somewhat. The trans mount seems to be in good shape, no cracks in the rubber.

The trans probably is ok, but may still allow it to rotate that much if the motor mounts are shot. On my '83 when I got it the rubber was completely torn through on the driver side motor mount, the trans mount and pass side mount were in ok shape, but the engine still kinda flopped around alot.
Also sounds like your throttle cable isn't exactly mounted properly. It should be flexible and in some cable housing from the body to the bracket on the intake, then the cable is no longer housed as it goes to the throttle linkage on the carb. There should be no different movement between the intake manifold and the carb, though.

I replaced The passenger side motor mount when I bought it and the driver side looks new and has no cracks in it.
Good point on the throttle cable. I'll make sure I get that adjusted. I put a weber on last month.

Great! Nice easy, cheap fix.
I know that I couldn't tell mine had broken until I actually took it out. It was a nice clean separation right where the rubber attaches to the metal, right where you can't see
