When you get it in, a word of advice on the bolts. Torque 'em down to spec, then run the hell out of it for about 20 mins. Get it as hot as it'll get, then (being careful not to burn yourself), re-torque 'em. This really cuts down on bolts loosening up on you...
Is there a way to lift the engine somehow with a jack? Can I do this by removing to motor mounts and jacking the engine, those 2 or 3 inches would make ahell of a difference.
You should be able to do it... or I would assume. I have done it on older daks to replace broken mounts, by using a floor jack and a few blocks, jacking it up a few inches, but I havent had to do it to the new dak yet
