Prepare the motor mounts by breaking off the small raised tabs on the lower section of the mount (with M12 studs) using vice-grips. 

Install motor mounts to the transmission side of the adapter plate wings with M12x35 bolts and washers.  Apply red threadlock and torque fasteners to 50ft/lbs.

Lift the engine cradle onto the studs on the bottom of the motor mounts (rounded tabs on cradle face engine).  Install M12 locknuts and washers and torque to 50Fft/lbs. 

Insert M8x35 bolts thru outer engine cradle holes and fasten with washers and locknuts finger tight. 

Rear Hanger Assembly:

Stack the 3 rear mount rubber hangers on top of each other so the holes line up, then insert the rear mount spacer tubes.  Lubricate with light oil to ease installation. 

Position the lower rear mount bracket over the longer (95mm) spacer and then insert the M10x120mm bolt with a washer on each side of the bracket.  Fasten with M10 locknut and tighten until snug but not crushing the mount.

Place the lower mount onto the 12mm studs on the engine just above the upper timing belt cover with the angled side of the bracket facing the engine.  Install M12 nuts and washers finger tight.

Position the upper rear mount bracket over the shorter (81mm) spacer and then insert the M10x110mm bolt with a washer on each side of the bracket.  Fasten with M10 locknut and tighten until snug but not crushing the mount.

Place the upper mount bracket onto the rear mount assembly so the vertical axis of the bracket is facing the engine.  Install M12 nuts and washers finger tight.

Leave the rear mount loosely fastened for now, it will be adjusted during install.
