Still need to know if you need the picker so I can start breaking it down tonight.

I got Allen/Caliswag to join with, so you've got 2 for tomorrow.

Got work Thursday @ 1:30, for me it's Weds, or very, very (hey look! sunrise!) early Thurs, but I'm really not a morning person.

I'll bring along some bolt cutters to cut off the exhaust welds. With one of us undoing the trans/exhaust and the other working on the front half of the engine we should be able to get it out pretty quick. Hopefully, we the A/C system will be disabled due to a slow leak over the past 15 years. :P

@ Damzil can i come thru this morning and pull out my starter if its still there? I'll start preping for the engine Howru. I'll loosen the up and lower runners and exhause manifold. If we pull the engine where are we going to put it ? At funkjaws place or your apt if its on the ground floor LOL.

@ Howru If everything goes to plan as mentioned ON Thrusday morning 9:30ish we can pull the engine and slap it somewhere. It should take no less than a hour or 2. Hows that sound? I work at 3pm on Thrusday. Pm me your # alright?

Finished pulling the engine, manifolds, interior and other stuff with rotary#10/Mike and finished right when it beg!n to rail. . Engine is currently in my passenger seat, waiting for a trip to the shell w/ funkjaw.

Got a nice hello from apt 24. "So when I come home from work tomorrow at 4:30, I'll have my space, right?" "Yep, it was just for today." I moved when the apt manager asked, why not ask first? -_-

Allen, I got the brake booster. Not sure if there's a difference between 4 and 5 lug, but there is a gasket you'll need that goes between booster and firewall.

Rotary#10 should have pics up in a bit.

Talking

Don't know if the driver's side handle is still in the shell...don't recall seeing it.

Allen, the gasket is kinda in one piece, but you can make a new one with some gasket paper, or the dealer. :/

Fun working with ya too, Mike. Glad you had that 24mm for the trans drain.
