FC engine install question
I have this 88 rx7 convertible (S4) it had a blown engine. I pulled the engine out without the transmission. I've rebuilt the engine now it's time to put it back in. Is it possible to put the engine in with the transmission in the car? It's kicking my *** here I'd really appreciate some help guys

okay, now we're getting somewhere.
before anything else, how sure are you that the clutch is aligned?
assuming the clutch is aligned, then you'll want to have a jack under the transmission to help align the input shaft with the engine. use a ratchet to turn the main pulley when you have the engine's weight against the tranny. it may or may not go all the way together, but at the end of the day, you just need to get it close enough to catch a bolt.
