In my almost 50 years of monkeying with cars, I have never pulled, nor dropped, an engine in to a car by my lonesome self. I think I could do an ERA by myself, but I still wouldn't try. I don't even want to have to dead lift the TKO myself, which is a hundred pounds. Have someone help you, even if it's your wife. Having that extra pair of hands to just guide the engine down on to the mounts, and not whack the side of the foot box or firewall, is really, really helpful. You've come this far, don't f*** it up now.
