Charles,
 
When I pulled my ZF I didn't do anything with the motor mount  bolts.
 
I disconnected the rear ZF mounts, raised the engine (don't let the  dizzy 
break the rea window), and pulled the ZF. My motor mounts have enough  flex so 
this worked.
 
When I installed the ZF, I got some long 7/16-14 bolts, cut the  heads off, 
tapered the ends slightly, sawed screwdriver slots in the ends, and  used them 
as studs to guide the ZF into place. Worked a treat.
