Doug,
Modify the rear crossmember to make it removable. I have had engines and transmissions in and out of my Contemporary more than a dozen times in the last 20 years. I first went with the removable tunnell but that sucked. Transmissions have no reason to be traveling thru the passenger compartment.
Just before Burtis called it quits I got one of the last removable trans mounts from him and retrofitted it.
If you like I can snap a photo of it (just so happens the engine and trans are out again) and send it on for your viewing pleasure.
