you have to jack the motor next to the mount.
you should have used somekind supports to keep the engine from moving.
your best bet would be to you use wide board and jack up against oil pan next to the timing belt. if you are not careful you will bend the oil pan.
the other way is to rent engine hoist and jack up that side from the top.
it is your choice, but since i have done that already i would go with jacking up from the bottom. just have to be very careful and don't put the jack directly on oil pan. use wide board to spread the pressure.

the engine mount should be the same for all years/types. Also if you wanna get it back in without a jack etc, get an old hockey stick, stick it between the car and the intake manifold standing right over the mount, and use the leverage to lift the engine back up. Ive done it and installed the mount (one hand on hockey stick, other sticking bolts back into the mount) it worked well. Also if you need a better mount, fill it with 3m window weld, it fixed mine even though it was broken into 3 pcs... but you need to wait a day or 2 for it to dry

you might have a problem getting that mount in if all the other ones are torqued down. If it seems like it wont go in, try loosening up the other 2 mounts and it'll move around a little bit more. I thought i was screwed when i was putting in my motor because the mounts were like 2 inches off and nothing i did would make them line up. I finally loosed the other 2 mounts and it liined up fine.

if you didnt mess with any other mounts (obviously you did NX, you were doing a swap) you shouldnt have to tweak them to get it back together if you didnt tweak them to get it off.

i did'nt mess with the other two, okay so yall said the one i got should fit, now i'm thinking about the rear one, it's like a v but when it's on the engine it's like a squashed v is this right, it's not broken, but it's just squashed down . . . . .
