It took me a while to get my motor back in too. Just try your best to line it up and install the bolts one at a time. I also used a jack under the motor as well to help me line the motor up to the mounts.

make sure the crank pulley is off that will give you some more room, and yeah the jack underneath helps. Sometimes you just gotta take a break and came back to it in 20 minutes, suddenly you'll know how to get it in there
