Garvino, maybe this thread will help you ...

There are a few things I DIDN'T do that I wish I would have know about, namely ...

- pull your oil filter - otherwise, you'll mess it up on the driver's side motor mount;
- starter can stay in place without issue;
- think about pulling the long bolt that holds the two pieces of the motor mounts together. You'll see that I removed each motor mount from the block (two bolts each side), but I think it may be easier to leave the engine-side of the mount attached to the block.
- you definitely have to disconnect both headers ... however, you can leave them in the car and attached to your mufflers;
- take note of where I bolted chains to my manifold and bellhousing ... I bought a load-leveler, but chose just to use chains due to clearance issues.

I was a total novice in taking this on - and it worked out just fine.

Best of luck,

EA
