well the way it goes in is to unbolt the motor mount and jack up the motor.. so i say try harder to get to it or get the right tools if you dont have them.. and yes it comes out the top
good luck!

You should be able to just pull the 6" bolt and jack it up a couple inches to clear, just the bolt not the mount on either side.

if you jack the car up high enough it should come out through the bottom, I've never had to jack the motor out to get LT's in.
