I can ask Vibra Technics, but I figured I'd tap into forum wisdom as well.

That would be possible. I had to raise my engine an inch higher to get the exhaust side mount in after I had the driver's side installed.

If you get the engine raised enough for the exhaust side you'll have plenty of clearance for the drivers side. And it would only add few extra minutes to the install. Then when you do your exhaust all you have to do is remove the top nut. I would recommend replacing both at the same time if it's going to be a couple of months. Trust me, you won't regret it.
