Re: T5 transmission crossmember ideas??
I think you are on the right track. I'd fabricate a wedge shape piece to go between the tail shaft and the mount so that the mount sat level on the crossmember.
You will have to set the cross member low enough so that you can set it up with the engine at the right angle. Also the wedge piece may have to be a two piece thing that you bolt to the tail shaft and bolt to the mount and then bolt the two pieces of the wedge/adapter together so the bolt heads can be closer together and still clear.
