Default ok wtf! lowering engine into car problems.

the swap is a gsr into an ls.

When you guys are lowering the engine into the bay how are you able to lower the passenger side mount into the mounting point without hitting the tranny????

i tried to lower the passenger side mount lower and go under the mounting point and jacking the engine back up but i cant get it to light up correctly. is there some kinda trick????

Take all the mounts off except the rear mount, when the motor's in place, then put the mounts in.
