Good luck with the rest of the process. Don't forget to have those injectors cleaned and flow balanced while everything is apart.

I just received my engine hoist and I was wondering where are the hook points on the engine to hoist it up? Thanks! I was looking at the service manual and it doesn't really show the points where you hook it up.

1. Near the alternator
2. On the UIM passenger/firewall side
Those are the stock locations provided no one removed them from your engine.

Also, Now would be a GREAT time to have the tranny rebuilt, or atleast get a nice ACT Street/Strip clutch with a Racing Beat 9.5lb Flywheel... I had that setup on my FD and loved every minute of it. Nice and tight, but VERY streetable
May I suggest cleaning up that front bumper too! haha just playin

One was the fact that you must disconnect the tranny cooler oil lines where the engine and transmission meet...no big deal as there are 'soft' connectors there. The other deal is there is a LONGGGGGGGG *** part of the wire harness that snakes down and around to the far end of the tranny, it has connectors near the air pump fitting.
All in all it was pretty anti-climatic, the engine came right out after disconnecting the flex plate from the torque converter and removing the bell housing bolts (key is the 24" extension with a 14mm flex socket) and the engine mount bolts.

I assume you are at least running an upgraded ECU

Good luck, I took mine out over the summer, had it rebuilt, put on some new parts and after having RRR fix what I screwed up during the reinstall, its running great. I hope you have better luck putting it back in then I did.
