Welcome home Alex, thank you and good luck with your project!

 

Welcome home and thank you!

 

Good to hear you mad it back safe. Welcome home!

 

Welcome home and thank you for your Service.

 

Another welcome home and a very big thank you for your service. Don pulls the tranny and then takes out the motor but he has a lift. Good luck with your project and will be looking forward to seeing it.

 

Welcome home and thanks for keeping us safe.

It's a bitch either way.
The bell housing bolts are hard to get to, but with the trans attached the car has to be higher and most definately need a equalizer bar to change the tilt of the engine/trans assy.

 

Welcome home. It is probably easier to remove your trans and then pull the engine. If you pull the distributor, or at least remove the cap, and then get a tranny jack under the trans, you may be able to remove the rear mount and let the engine rock back on the mounts enough to let you get to the top bell housing bolts.

 

Thanks for the welcome home and well i was told i need a balanced flywheel for the swap so now i need to figgure out where to get one at anyone have any ideas?

 

Yes, welcome back!

Has anyone tried using the 4th gen method of engine removal? Dropping the K-member and going out the bottom?

Wow i never thought i would get a welcome home like this its great to be back and you really learn to appricate the way of life here in the US when you go overseas like that to a country thats still trying to rebuild and no bodys sure what they want. But i didnt join for all the thanks im just doin my job just like anyone else and i wouldnt trade it for the world but if anyone knows where i could get rid of my old 305 thats a diffrent story oh im in huntington beach by the way if anyone wants it or knows where i can get rid of it. Thanks for the welcome home hopefully ill be able to enjoy if for alittle bit before they deside to send me back

 

I would imagine you would need a lift or a big hole in the ground.

 

Welcome home soldier!

 

no not a soldier a Marine

 

Well you could use it for a boat anchor-LOLOLOLo_ No I would not do that--I do envy the fact that you are in huntington beach as I am native to SD and miss the surfing--the mid west is where I am at now-no more beach parties or surfing, or year round clasic cars, but we make do and have barn parties ect
life is great
