Dam, I decided to put in new motor mounts while the exhaust was off to do the headers. It's probably in the 30's in my garage so that doesn't help. But the driver's side motor mount alone took 2-1/2 hours to get out and then drill out the rivets and bolt back together. I had no idea you needed to take the mounts apart to get the rubber mount out. I'm sure I'll be glad I did it but what a pain. I'm not sure if I feel like starting on the passenger side one tonight or not. It was 8 degrees this morning so I'm sure my garage is even colder today.
