Jesus shltfire, that's a ton of work to remove enough off the top of the motor to allow the motor to be jacked up. At that much work, I'd consider removing the cab instead. At that point, you have easy access to everything including the transmission.
Just a thought.

Sure, definitely an option to get it done. I haven't needed to pull the cab for anything yet. It doesn't look too bad and if/when I ever do, I may find it's 'the move', but for now, usually working alone in my driveway with no lift, I'm going to avoid it unless necessary.

I’m debating on whether to tackle this while I’m installing headers. I’ll have the entire Whipple blower off anyway. Another member recommended me to change these out while I’m that far in. Can you say which side was more trouble to do? The passenger side has to come off completely for headers, so I guess I’m halfway there already. I’m wondering if doing the tranny mount would be smart while all of this is going on? I’ll be a one-man show during all of this.

I think it was RockAuto that had Anchor brand mounts available. Should I stick with oem or go aftermarket?
