solid mount question?

When ever any of you were installing your solid motor mounts how exactly did you slide it into place with the header (driver's side) still on?

If I remember correctly, we unbolted the headers and just raised them up a bit, put a block of wood underneath the oilpan and jacked up the engine. We then slid the solid mounts in and bolted them to K and engine. It was a pain in the ***.

Yeah, I finally got it in there. I didn't have to take the header off, just did tons of wiggling and moving it around but it finally slid into place...I'm glad it's over...
