WPrater,
Unless the engine bracket is well distorted, installing the engine makes a lot easier and convenient if you have flexibility for adjustment. Loosen the 4 bolts at the engine console and also the 2 bolts for the motor mount/s. Install the 2 large engine bolts. Do not forget to support the engine well from the bottom. With all these mounting bolts loosen, you have plenty of movement to install and align everything.
The transmission mount bolts are also done similarly. Keep us posted.
