I see what u mean by the motor mounts, so remove both bolts? And I don't have a lift, would there be a place I could jack the motor up, I was thinkin piece of wood and flex plate but didn't want that to bend, could I get a trans jack and do it that way?

You will need to pull pan towards trans to get it out so anything in that area would be in the way. You can lift motor by harmonic balancer you wont hurt anything.
 
You can lift the motor from underneath using a plank to spread the load. You just don't want to crush the pan under the oil pump. Remove both side mount bolts so it's free, then place blocks of wood where the mounts are and rest it on them. You will still need some swivel adapters and extensions to get at some pan bolts, but it beats pulling the motor.
 
oil pan bolts are already removed, ill probaly jack it up from the balancer and just pop out the motor mount bolts, I just have to slide out the pan
