    do i need to remove the center motor mount when removing engine?

    just like the title says, i'm not sure if i have to remove the front center motor mount when removing the engine? from underneath the car it just looks like the transmission/engine just rest on top of it so it looks like i could just keep it on and not worry about it.

    the bracket just sits on top of the rubber part, it's not really a mount, more like a bumper for the transmission, if you are worried about it, just drop the center cross member it will come out with it, really easy to do, and it gives you a lot more room to work, take out the bolts in front and back of the cross member, and it's out. It doesn't support the engine
