I was wondering if Bruce Turrentine's engine removal/replacement video for the fc would be helpful for pulling the engine out. (I have never pulled an engine from a car before).

*I am not talking about the 13b overhaul video but the removal/replacement video.

 

i was thinking of buying it before i pulled my engine (never pulled one from a car before either), and im glad that i didnt cause removing the engine was pretty easy. i tore my engine to shrot block while it was sitting on the engine bay ( for me that made it more easier to pull). the only problem that i had it was getting thoses oil cooler lines off.

 

it's pretty easy getting it out, even for a first timer. the hard part is remembering where everything goes when you put it back

 

just remember to put all your bolts in baggies with labels.

 

yes and label hose's and vac lines as well make's it easier when mating things back together

 

and make sure you don't lose the damn paper with what the labels mean and where they $%@$*#@ join. Not that I did that or something....

 

it couldn't hurt to get the video though. how much does it cost?

 

I bought the video before i did my engine swap and i thought it was real good. He explains everything real good on removal, and transfering everything over to the new motor. He tells you about the small but common mistakes people make when doing an engine swap that can cause you to mess the motor up before you really get to use it. And installation is just the opposite of removal.

 

I think the video would be very helpful for the beginner, but very little help for the experienced. Having it as a reference is very valuable for the first time swap because SO MANY problems are posted here because a connector or hose is in the wrong spot.

The rebuild video is great.

 

anyone got a copy or a link to get it ?????????????
