When I pulled my 235 with the 4spd, I had the front clip off but I had trouble removing it with the 4 spd. Yes the stick shift was removed. I was about an inch from clearing so I decided to drop the transmission and it came out easy. Yes there is a lot of weight because the motor is so long so be careful. Maybe you will have better luck than me as I remember correctly where the stick shift fit into the transmission that was where it was hanging up even with the hump cover removed. I would next time same some advergation and remove the tranny first, then remove the motor.
