Good luck on pulling that motor

Just remember to put a jack under the tranny to support it. (Or maybe a block of wood will do because your tranny is so low.) It took me and my friend (two guys who'd NEVER pulled a motor before) all of like 6 hours to pull out my old motor and put in my new motor...the hardest part, was getting the damn motor to sit in the bay properly, so we could get the motor mount bolts in.

mine is out, and disassembled to a shortblock. all 8 cylinders, pistons and combustion chambers look good. however, it looks like the cam and lifters and timing chain are shot.
