The scariest part was when the motor dropped a bit when I got the bottom bracket loose. Was easy to get the mount out of the car. I just moved the passenger side hose out the the way and pulled it down. I reused the rubber washers from the old mount. I have a friend who is a Porsche mechanic and he said that is fine. I had to install it with the longer side facing opposite from the way it came out. Mount went back in even easier. car shifts much smoother now. Feels new. I autocrossed it last weekend with the broken mount and it was horrible. BTW i backed the car up onto ramps and put the front on jack stands. I did use blue loctite and torques all bolts but the to one. Also my mount only had three bolts on it, not four.
