Is it possible to downgrade Safari 6 to 5 in Mountain Lion? I tried to install 5.1.7 but it says it only works with OS X 10.7.
Is there any workaround I can try?

looks like this needs to be revisited as there are two examples given on how to do it where the "No you can't" answer was accepted.– dstarhSep 7, 2012 at 20:51

@dstarh - the best way to get an accept mark to change is making the correct answers better. As the linked question above is about lion (which shipped with safari 5 - it's a different thing entirely than bolting on a browser that doesn't ship with a newer OS which is the case here). either way, votes and editing can show a "better" answer than even an accepted one.– bmike ♦Sep 7, 2012 at 21:00

No, you can't go back with Safari on Mountain Lion.
Yes you can. See this answer:

Sorry this answer is for downgrading Safari 6 in Lion only
Yes you can go back to Safari 5.1.7 from Safari 6. I found the uninstaller on this site. Third from the top is Safari 6 - Lion uninstaller, click this to download, run it, reboot and Safari 5.1.7 will (surprisingly) reappear, I have just done it, no problems though YMMV.
