OK so how does one raise their engine?

 

i disagree i found the passenger side had way more room to bolt in header once the starter was out the way, took me half the time than on the driverside

one side at a time, be sure to remove the motor mount from the engine, be sure to support engine first, i use trusted floor jack make sure you trust it, ie, full with jack fluid so it dont lower on you. use a phone book or 2x4 across the oil pan, ensure even wieght distrabution so to not cause damage. and then just jack it up about 1-2 inches. do what ever on that side reinstall mount, lower, and repeat on other side.
