Yes the motor mount is a bit frustrating, unbolt the motor mount from the motor and jack your motor up a bit see if u cant squeeze it out. Note there are 2 10mm bolts they are hard to get to u do not need to take them out to get the mount off. The reason they are hard to get to is because they are the water pump bolts and 2 holes were factory drilled for the heads of the bolts to just sit in there. Goodluck I did it it wasnt fun:)
