May I add that at the front of the oil pan where the gasket must curve to meet the front timing cover, at that area in the bend put a bead of the right stuff just a small bead that runs side to side with the bend. Also be careful when installing the bolts in the front timing cover. Only tighten...

You are all good. The biggest PITA is keeping the trans cooler lines tucked to the side. Easy done with a zip tie or bungee. Good Luck. You can do this. I use the gasket and Permatex the Right Stuff. Done hundreds of engines and never had issues.

I would like to see a side-by-side comparison of these mounts. Back when I was pioneering replacement parts for CUCV's I used the parts as examples and did side by side comparisons and fit to come up with a part and part number that fit. I also tested it hard over the years. Here is what I found...

Part# 31152G Amazon.com: Energy Suspension 31152G Motor Mount : Automotive Part# 3.1116G Amazon.com: Energy Suspension 3.1116G Clam Shell Type Engine Mount for GM : Automotive Tell me the difference. Just so I know. The CUCV uses 1983 K5-30 350 gas engine motor mounts has been my experience.
