even with all the tools and an impact wrench, took me the better part of a weekend. what can I say.
almost every bolt and fastener was either stuck or jammed or rusted solid. at the front mount, even after one bolt sheared off and the other one removed, the motor wouldn't budge. Had to use a sledge hammer and a 2x4 to knock it loose. That only came after a couple hours trying to figure out what the hell was going on. i was working alone so that made things slower of course. Now I have to pull the 1.7 out of the racecar but I think that will go much faster now that I know what to expect. It was fun even with the frustrating moments. dr Attached image(s)
