Trans braces not installed when motor went in, can I fix with a little welding/fab work?

So the trans to motor mount k braces were not installed when everything went in. I’m thinking of making a bracket that bolts onto the motor mount to fix it after the fact. Don’t want to delete them.

I would lift/jack the motor up and install the way they were intended

I'd just make a new bracket out of flat stock and weld it to the mount. Then use your existing rods.
