Just a few points to highlight: - Getting everything in place, have the car as high as you can safely get it. You can lower the car as needed later when you are ready to jack up the engine.
- As you raise the engine and transmission, make frequent checks of the hoses, and wiring. Make sure they are in the right place, not getting crushed or stressed. Top, sides, and bottom.
- When the engine mount is near position, thread a couple bolts in to keep it aligned, but don't tighten them until the mount bracket is lifted all the way.
- After the engine and transmission are in, Light tension with a ratchet strap can be helpful when you install the braces and pan underneath.
- Pry the exhaust clamps loose (for the junctions on the 'C' pipe) before you assemble it.
