The new engine mount was the best project cost/time per upgrade I’ve done on the car so far. It was pretty easy. I changed the fuel filter while everything was open as well (stinky and messy).

I would recommend using a scissor jack to lower the engine with a board across the front of the oil pan. I did it back where the transmission and engine join (at the cable) and it made it hard to raise the engine back up and I squished fluid out of one of the tranny mounts. It was just too far back to effectively raise the engine in the front.
