Re: pull motor for paint or not?
If you have an engine hoist, I would just pull the motor and trans as a single unit. You will be much happier.
I think what it truly comes down to is the paint prep that can be done RIGHT when the motor is out, this will lead to a much longer lasting paint finish regardless of your paint approach.
I say if you can, pull the engine, its really not that hard, a few bolts, hoses & wires & it will be out before you know it.
