Might be a dumb question, I've only had to jack my 996 up a few times for work, I don't even jack it up for an oil change. With that said...other than giving more space, is there a reason to jack up the car, or would lightly jacking up the engine to lift it off the mounts work?

You'll need to support the engine from below since the engine hangs from the mounts.

I did it without jacking up the car. Just use the jack to support the engine so it doesn't fall down as you remove the mounts.
