I plan to drop the engine from my 73 this weekend. Saturday likely.
I've done it before, but it's good to have a hand. Let me know if you're game. .ps it may rain this weekend. If so, not gonna do it. =) |

Joe is the man. He got it out on his own and it didn't take a bucket of water.

Yo BJ! How's it going?
Came out pretty easy. Had to double check a few things with Joe Sharp, but got it all done. Now I need to pull the trans, and get it up on a stand so I can pull the heads. Ugh!!! |
