took 5 hours start to finish. sending it out to rotary resurrection next week. 3mm seals, street port...





what a ******* nightmare












taking it out was easy...putting it back in is going to be a different story. already dreading that rats nest...

 

Sure, try it without a lift next time

 

Nice work. It took me roughly around the same time but I did it over a couple of days. The most time consuming part was just unplugging / disconnecting everything.

Instead of pulling the engine up and out of the car like most people did I found it easier to raise the car higher and drop the engine down under and out of the car. Mind you this was all done in my garage with just a few jack stands and an engine hoist.

 

how big were your jacks?!

 

+1

You must have some super tall jacks and jack stands!

I am in the process of pulling my engine out right now. Fun times!

 

The fun part will be getting it all back together!

 

Do you guys even have a lift in your shop, or does one of you hold the car up with one arm while you're working?

 

I would also prefer to drop the engine without using a hoist if possible, but I don't think it could be done with basic jacks/stands.
