TII 5 Speed crossmember help??

I picked up a used TII 5 speed to replace the 5 speed in my 87' TII. I dropped the motor and tranny in today and I found that my 87' crossmember will not bolt up to the 5 speed i just picked up. Any ideas? could this be a S5 TII 5 speed? If so what kind of problems am I going to run into?

Trans mount

I have 3 of these transmssions. One came out of the car. The second I bought with a motor from a canadian car. The two of them use identical mounts. I don't know what I'm missing here???!!! This 3rd 5 speed looks the same except where the crossmember bolts on.

looks like you got a s5 transmission. all you need a s5 t2 crossmember and it's all good.

The part in the jpg is different. Been there, done that some time ago. Put a turbo engine/transmisison in a series four non turbo. Non turbo part won't work. Bought a Turbo part. Done.

I used a S5 n/a crossmember on my S4 with s5 T2 trans. Just have to oblong the holes which is pretty easy. Worked fine.
