Finally the engine is back where she belongs!!!


This time around I left the transmission on the car. I think I now prefer pulling only the engine. I saved so much work in NOT having to drop the exhaust, remove the heatshields to get to transmission mount and convertible support. I didn't have to drain my transmission fluid, etc.

Install was much easier than I expected. Initially getting the transmission spline lined up and in was the hardest part. Jacking up the transmission helped greatly. Once that got lined up it I simply used a spare AC compressor mounting bolt and nut through the top bolt hole as well as the long starter through bolt. Once I was able to start tightening those down it was simply a matter of walking the bolts in place.
