convertible mounts are the same thing and are actually 1/4" inch lower than stock.... go with those... their actually cheaper.

As long as you unbolt the stock motor mounts first, and open the hood, no you should not have a problem with the oil pan. You just lay a 2x4 across the jack and jack the engine up from the rear sump of the oil pan. (AFTER unbolting the stock mounts and opening the hood)

the mounts arent stock but I should put a little pressure on it just for safety while unbolting the engine right?
