Yes I've jack up the engine from the oil pan. I also loosened the other side so it could pivot. I did 1 side at a time. Also I just ordered mounts for a 5.7 vortec from rock auto. They were gm genuine

Wait. What? I can't find them for my 96 or 97 K1500's. I've never seen them for sale at Rockauto or anywhere else. What's the part number? Gotta' link?

The motor mounts o mine are fine, but I would like to have a set for backup.

After you've jacked up the motor have some short 2x4 blocks to wedge in between the block and frame for safety reasons--sort of like using jackstands instead of relying on a floor jack.
