You guys are great!!!!

Thanks for all the sugestions. Just spoke with Phil and have all the seals, new engine mounts, and tranny bushings on the way. Saturday is the big day, I have a few guys comming over to help me. I couldn't find a floor jack so I figured they will lift the car while I work on it . Just kidding. I am going to put the rear wheels on oil ramps, and use floor jacks for the front. I hope everthing goes smoothly. I have two seprate mechanics who are going to oversee the whole ordeal, but they said that I need to learn how to do it.
Questions,
Do I access the allen bolts for the engine mounts from the top or from under the car?
I did purchase a new radiator, Thanks Bonehead.
To get the engine out, I lower the car back down and then tilt the engine out???? Doesn't seem like there will be enough room to tilt it far enough to angle it as such to pull it out.??
My last enigine only had 128 k when it overheated, do you think the water pump is still good????
Thanks all,
3 days and counting.
