RE: Motor Mounts
Just get a piece of wood anda Floor Jack...supportthe motor by the oil pan.
Loosen the three bolts in the mounts, raise the motor, and replace the mounts....Then rebolt them to the proper torque.
In theory, it is easy. It is reaching and cracking the bolts that makes ita pain.
That is how I did it in my Fox...I am not sure if it is different in the SN95.

RE: Motor Mounts
a wooden block under the pan is fine , remember your just lifting the motor....not the car
and btw, you need to remove the fan and shroud first, then ubolt the mounts, then raise it
and atip, use 'vert mounts if you don't wanna buy energy suspension poly mounts

I did mine with the heads off so it was easy. I was actually able to stand inside the engine well and do it from the top with a socket wrench and a breaker bar. So if you plan on gutting your motor anytime soon, I would do it then
