Default 00 wrecked prelude need help (searched)

so it hit a rail pretty hard, the radiator is completely smashed and leaking fluid. the front two engine mounts are beyond repair. how do i go to replacing the motor mounts? can i just jack up the engine and replace the mounts? or do i have to use a crane and pull it out while i replace the mounts?

thanks

is it worth replacing? theres a 3500$ SS prelude with busted headlight and fender in my area.

Take old mount out, put in new one. The engine's not going to move much with just 1 mount out....and if it does just put a jack (with a piece of wood or something soft) under the oil pan to get it where you want it.
