I shortened the lead I made for the solenoid. Another soldered terminal.

Then the connectors for the reverse light switch. These are not quite in all the way yet. Plus a new rubber boot.

For the power lead to the starter, I got a massive pre-made cable.

This should carry as many amps as needed.

I had quite a gap between the rear sheet metal panel, and the top of the engine case. How about sealing that with some rubber tape?

Time to fill the transaxle. I used Swepco 201 90W, as recommended by CMS.

And my trusty 17 mm hex wrench. This has been hiding in the back of my tool chest for a while.

Sure easier with the trans out of the car.

The fill took about 3/4 gallon. CMS did run the transaxle on the bench, and drained the original lube.

More prep for the installation: I removed the throttle bodies.

I also removed the oil filler/breather. No troubles with clearance now, right?

Here's the engine and trans braced and balanced on my "motorcycle lift".

Decent clearance under the rear bumper, with the valance removed.

Got it centered and lined up. I lifted one inch at a time, and then checked all around, top and bottom.

I used some cardboard to protect the edges of the sheet metal from the suspension nuts.

Eventually, I got the engine and trans lifted into place, and the mounts aligned. In the front, I used new bolts, inserted from below. This protects the nut end (and matches the PET).
