Okay...It won't be long and the new motor will be going back into the Cobra. I took the engine and transmission out seperately. Motor was fine but the transmission was a pain removing by myself and I had to rotate the tranny 90 degrees so that the lever that the shifter attached would clear the tunnel. For the install...should I decide to try and install as a unit I have a few questions. (1) If I remove the partial shift lever and plate will I have enough room to reinstall theses components in its resting position? (2) The front end is to long to install engine and tranny as a unit using the front approach (pulled motor using side approach) with my current engine hoist. It may be possible that I could use a hoist from the structure above and roll the car around as needed. People don't freak out!! I built my garage and I have some structural engineering experience so the ceiling won't come crashing down. I'm not opposed to installing as individual components just seeking experienced advice. Any further suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
