Hello folks in Austin!
I am hopeful some one with more experience than I could help lend a hand or two to help me reinstall my engine and transaxle. I originally hired a mechanic to do the rebuild, but after 2 months, he quit on me. After he completely disassembled the engine into 1000 pieces. Found FAT performance and they are doing the rebuild. Engine should be coming back soon to Austin and I am in need of some knowledge on re-installing the engine. If anyone out there can help, I would be most appreciative. Thanks Doug |

My advise is to get two pieces of threaded rod (about 12 inches) to attach the engine bar to the front mounts. This will allow you to tip the whole assy to clear the suspension ears. This will obviously take longer.
Good luck it is not that hard David |
