okay, i think i have everything prepared for the new engine. any tips you all can give me?

i figure the hardest part is gonna be bolting the torque converter to the flexplate. that seemed to be hardest getting it off last time.

best way to do it is what....

1. lift into engine bay
2. bolt to tranny
3. bolt to motor mounts
4. bolt flexplate and TC together

that sound good?
