Removing the Engine - Part 3
Part 1 - Part 2 - Part 3
The throttle bracket, heater box, and brake tubing need to be removed to get enough clearance:
The chain is straightened on the hoist, and the engine is fully lifted:
The bolts on either side of the oil pump, and through the lip on the drivers side of the engine could also be used. I might try those some time.
It is a bit of a pain to remove the head, etc., but the engine is quite a bit lighter.
Just pull the car back a bit and ease the engine over the front rail:
I kept a spare length of chain in place to hold the engine if something went wrong. Make sure it doesn't get twisted up. It turned out quite handy when I fixed the twisted chain on the hoist.
