Made it easier to get to the top bolts on the for the engine mount to loosen it (just be sure to break those nuts loose with engine still down) -- once the engine was hanging a bit, I removed the mounts. Makes clearing the engine bay a lot easier. Did the same on the passenger side too -- so having the PS pump out the way was great too (I fully disconnected mine). Did similar on the re-install, while engine was almost in-place, hooked up the mounts via the top nuts then lowered engine into place. Tightened nuts to spec after engine was down.
