Jack up the back of the car, not the front especially if you are working in a 
low ceilinged garage... Remove the bolts holding the passenger side motor mount 
to the frame. Remove the nuts from the top of the motor mount rubber (where it 
attaches to the engine plate) on the driver's side. Wiggle it to get it off 
while lifting the motor. When you re-install the engine, line up the driver's 
side first. Start the nuts and wiggle the motor to line up the passenger mount. 
I have found this to be the easiest way.
