i need some help.

hey guys, so here is the deal, i just got my 383 back together and back in my car. i had it out on its maiden voyage, and twards the end of my 200mi trip, i got on it alittle bit and it seems that my torque arm riped it self out of the tranny. i only had a few minutes to check it out but it looks like it riped the threads out of the trans, and also my brand new energy trans mount is twisting in place. am i just gunna run into the same problem if i helicoil the bolt hole and bolt it back up? as far as the tranny mount goes, this is the second time it has twisted on me like that, should i think about a solid trans mount?

Are your motor mounts worn out allowing the engine to rotate? I'm running 593 rwhp and never had an issue breaking tranny mounts. A4's will eat tranny mounts over time, but not immediately.
