6 Hours huh, not bad.
A couple of questions for ya....
Do you recommend the black permatex gasket maker, I thought I would need to purchase a gasket?
How did you know your motor mounts were bad? and how much did you pay for them?
Lastly, I am assuming I will need to support the engine somehow, while I do the work....will using a lift be better and how should I go about supporting the engine? Did you get a quote from a shop before you decided to do the job yourself? and if so what was his price?
tks much
jay

engine mount going bad...take it out and see if the rubber is cracked/broken/separated. if yes then it's time for a new mount.
you can support it at the crank and at the tranny...best thing to use is the transverse engine support brace. it's connected to the strut towers and has a portion in the middle to support the engine.
i didn't get a quote from a shop, i just did it.
i used the ultra black in the tube, it takes 24 hrs to fully cure though.
The gaskets are two little rubber pieces on the rounded parts of the seal.
i just support the engine with a block of wood inbetween my jack and the tranny case. just be carefull.
my motor mounts looked like this.
