Default Question on removing the lt1 engine from the top


Hey guys i have a happy hooker that I got and Im wondering if it would be best to remove the transmission still attached to the engine or if I should unbolt it first. If I was to leave it on shouldnt the transmission just slide off of the drive shaft? Im pretty sure the drive shaft just sits inside of the tranny, thanks.

i would pull it out as one. its a big pain in the *** trying to get the clutch fork off when its out of the car, i could only imagin trying to do it under the car. the drive does slide out of the trans, but needs to be unbolted from the diff

Thanks on the confirmation, that is what I figured. My dad did a clutch replacement on the car about 10 years ago when he owned it and was convinced in removing the tranny first but its a big pain in the ***.
