Re: Dropping Motor Out the Bottom

[William Parker <hemirr@xxxxxxxxx>]

It wasn't bad at all. I chose to do it that way with a 68 383 Barracuda because I was painting the engine compartment as well as freshening the engine and realized that method would help me not scratch up the new paint. I rested the engine and trans on furniture mover flat dollies and used my cherry picker to lift the front of the car right up off the k. Then rolled the assemblies out from under. Reversed the process of course for assembly. It went great.

Bill M. suggested - Or you could do he factory way...4 bolts for the k frame, 4 bolts for the trans crossmember, remove upper control arm eccentrics, loosen brake lines, and drop it out the bottom!!

How easy/difficult is that versus pulling out the top when all you have is a engine hoist and no lift?
