Hey Guys,

My 1989 351W P.I. motor is making strange sounds, and I am giving it the heave ho in lieu of spending any time/money trying to repair it.

So, the Miserly Magoo will be forking over some cash for a nice stroker from either Performance Engineering (thx Jay) or Keith Craft. I am looking forward to the lifting of the cloud of shame that is attached to having less than 300 HP and a junkyard mill. No longer will I have to explain to disappointed little boys that 250HP is actually a lot in terms of power to weight ratio.

I have now disconnected everything, borrowed an engine lift, and am preparing to do the deed. Am I right to assume that once I remove the tranny cross member (I have the removable kind), and unbolt the tranny mounts and the engine mounts, and lash up the drive shaft so it doesn't fall, that I just move the engine/tranny unit forward a few inches and the tail shaft just pulls away from the drive shaft? And then I tilt the tranny down and lift her up and out?

Thanks All,

Sean
