Uggghhh, it's still a long road. Gonna have to put some hours in.

oh definitely not. It was such a breeze to take the engine and trans out in 1 piece and re-install it as 1 piece. You can sit down and do a proper job replacing seals and things when its out of the car too. the next time I need a clutch I will be removing the engine and trans together again.

I don't care what anyone says ... getting the transmission out sucks .... a lot !!
I am going to put it in as one unit ... I will make it work. I am not going to put that transmission on after the motor is in .... Ugghhhhh
Drop the front subframe with motor attached to trans= boom.

I literally attached my engine hoist to my core support and lifted it right off the subframe/engine combo. Easiest thing I've ever done.
