I'm feeling like a kid in the candy store! Just picked up my engine from the machine shop. Can't wait to get it back in the car. Weather is just a bit colder than I like to be laying under a car on concrete floor this weekend, plus, its Valentine weekend and I would be in the dog house for a while if I decided to sneak off to the garage! Good thing the garage is 80 miles away!

 

lol.80 miles and you might not be able to hear the screams.understand the feeling about new stuff.sure you're excited

 

i thought there was pictures. what a tease... lol. have fun.

 

Just for you craby!

 

cool looks ready to go in. im getting ready to do the change on mine. have a couple soccer sessions with the little ones this week and want to use the car for that. gettin nervous now, never done a motor change from the bottom, i just know im forgetting something.

 

You will do just fine. It is a mind thing, especially when you are use to taking them out the top. My most frustrating part was getting the cherry picker legs in a position to not interfer with the engine cradle sitting on the furniture dolly. I found it easier to disconnect all of the wiring harness from the engine and leave it with the car. Some take the harness out with the motor. Make sure you use a tie down strap between the two front coil springs before you lower the engine or you can put alot of strain on the brake lines. When they come loose, they don't let anything get in the way!
