Thanks Jim - just a bit late for me - It came out last night.

Good tip on the gas pedal bolts - I pulled the covers, so I had no issue there.


I left the condesor in place and covered the face of it with a thick carpet remnant. There is a ton of room between the motor and core support, once evrything is nekid.


Am I still looking for a shipment around the end of next week to fill my lonely vacant engine bay? It looks like just the place to put something from your shop!

Every time I turned around the motor would puke another quart from some new orifice. When it finally pulled free of the trans - another gallon dumped out the water pump opening.
