Engine Installation Procedure

[Gary AAR]

I am getting ready to install the engine onto the K-member assembly.  The K-member and front suspension are currently out from under the car, and sitting on a separate fixture with wheels.  My plan is to mount the engine to the K-member assembly, then add the bell housing and transmission, and finally roll this complete assembly under the body that has been lifted up.  My car is a 70 AAR Cuda with the original 340 and 4-speed transmission.  I will be using factory motor mounts and rubber isolators to install the engine to the K-member.  My question is what is the best sequence for installing the motor mounts/isolators to get everything to line up between the engine and the K-member.  Is it best to .....
1. Attach the motor mount and isolator to the engine, and then lower the engine onto the K-member and install the single bolt that attaches the isolator to the K-member on each side.
2. Attach the motor mount and isolator to the K-member, and then lower the engine onto the K-member and install the (6) bolts (3 each side) that attach the motor mounts to the engine.
3. Attach the isolator to the K-member, attach the motor mount to the engine, and then lower the engine onto the K-member and install the nut that attaches the isolator to the motor mount.  Will I have adequate access to install and torque the nut using this assembly sequence?

Whether using any of the above sequences, I assume I will need to leave all the bolts and nuts slightly loose until everything is installed and lined up. 

For those that have done this many times, which sequence (1, 2, or 3) works the best for ease of engine installation?
Thanks for the help!

Yep, #1 Better to slide 1 bolt into a hole then to wrestle 3 bolts from a swinging engine under a K frame. Save that headache for when you have to do it in the car.

Sequence number 1 is what I will use!  Thanks for the responses.
