fantastic. What is that part that fell out from under the car as it was being driven off the stands??---Jack
I don't fully believe that it was totally bolted it before the extraction ....but fun to watch. My best ever time dropping one out of Bradley GT with all hand tools lined up was 9 minutes.
Show biz!
Cripes, it takes me more time than that to just line up the damn bellhousing bolts (working alone) using my sons cherry picker.
Easiest way to bed the motor to the trans:
Use a clutch alignment tool to center the clutch disc, put the trans in 1st gear, support the motor with a floor jack and confirm the vertical gap between the motor and trans are even.(should be 1.5" or less) With the alt. belt already installed, wiggle the alt. pulley nut left and right as you push motor forward to the trans, this line up the clutch disc to the trans shaft splines and it will slide right into place...
