Pulla de motor

["Kerry Pinkerton" <pinkertonk@xxxxxxxxx>]

Clint, I'd sure pull as a unit if I could.  It should clear by tilting it down.  One of those adjustable slings that you can crank the angle on really helps as you need to start by lifting straight up and increase the angle as it goes.  You MIGHT have to to pull the radiator but I doubt it.  Go ahead and take off the oil cooler lines.

 

Good Luck

Hi Club,

Well, I've got the engine unbolted from the trans on the 59, but my brain had an operator error. I 'm going to pull the trans. also and rebuild it, so I should just put a couple of bolts back in the bellhousing and pull the engine and trans as a unit, and re-install the same way, yes? Now then, if I pull these as a unit, do I need to take the grille and stuff off or is there enough room to get them both out? I have the heads and manifolds off already.

Thanks,

Clint and Laurie
