If your not worried about breaking the bins, take one of the doors off the bin and just drop the motor in the bin, flywheel down. I guarantee it won't move the whole trip.

Thats where mine sat after it rolled forward and hit my buddy in the back of the head with a carb. Never moved the rest of the way on our 30 minute trip. Just kept bumping into his head.

OR... You could take the bins out, give them to me (backseats FTL), then put the motor in there.

I would gladly take out my bins and send them to you for your back seats.

Shortblock will fit floor of passenger seat area
Shortblock & Longblock will fit in rear hatch/trunk area

*Note* Secure to the best of your ability. Check for fluids still in engine or other misc items coming with the engine. Lay down protection for any carpeted areas. When attempting to move the engine seek help, or use a hoist as to eliminate any potential way of harming your back.
