I don't think you need to lift the engine from two points. I was looking yesterday at mine (95 Aero), while trying to remove axle carrier bracket.
Mount design is different then on earlier models( mount is secured with bolt instead of nut) which doesn't require high lifting. Just try to slide old mount out when 3 bolts and 2 screws are removed. Here is procedure. Note, that you have to move lifting eye from left to right side of the engine.
I'm just using tranny jack borrowed from fellow TSNer Urby to lift an engine-I believe I need an inch of clearence.

REMOVAL
1. Install the engine lifting beam (83 93 977), or equivalent over the engine bay and attach a hook to the RH eye on the engine.
2. Remove the right front wheel.
3. Remove the front section of the fender liner.
4. Remove the bolt securing the bracket to the mounting and raise the engine slightly.
5. Undo the bolt securing the bracket to the block and lift off the bracket.
6. Undo the bolts securing the mounting to the subframe and remove the mounting.
INSTALLATION
1. Install the engine mounting.
2. Install the bracket for the oil pipe into the groove in the engine bracket and bolt the engine bracket to the block.
3. Lower the engine onto the mounting and remove the lifting beam.
4. Install the bolt securing the engine bracket to the engine mounting.
5. Install the fender liner.
6. Install the wheel and torque the bolts to 130 Nm (96 ft. lbs.) .
