Don't know that model but I know on other front mount 3.0s that is true.
Use a board on the bottom of the boat under a bottle jack.

I have a1997Regal with a Volvo Penta 3.0 GS. The v belt that
connects from the crankshaft pulley to the power steering pulley and
another pulley broke. It appears that the only way to replace this
belt is to remove the front engine mount. Is there another way to
install this belt?- Hide quoted text -

Thanks for the reply Jamesgangnc. I was afraid of that.

And when you install the new belt, leave a 2nd one installed inside the
mount.- Hide quoted text -

Excellent suggestion CalifBill. I wished Volvo used your
proactiveness. :-)
