If I lived close enough I'd stop over and help you, it almost takes longer to go get the bolts than it does to change them.

All you need is some basic wrenches and sockets, socket extensions, rachet, a drill motor and a good selection drill bits.maybe a screwdriver to use a drift pin.(to get the holes lined up)

And all you want to do is make sure the holes in the engine frame mounts are the same diameter as the holes in the engine mount holes and then make sure the bolts fit with just a slight amount of play. just enough play so you may (but not necessarily) have to TAP them in NOT BEAT THEM IN.

In most cases you can just push on the bolt and wiggle the engine around a bit to gets the bolts in.

Start with th two large rear upper/lower bolts and get them set and tigh then work on the front four.

I really wonder if the fit on the counterbalanced engines are as bad as on the un balances engines.( I really hope they got that all staightened out)
