Cheers

No you cant, you have to drop the motor, tyranny and front suspension all in one. You can leave the center and rear diffs in the car tho.

Ok guys,

Got the motor out, Piston 4 has a chuck take from the side of it, so this was either caused by my new PTE injectors im getting them flow tested or when the Vacuum line blew off the FPR causing the car to run Lean 1 time...

Some Pics

Oh and thats the motor out with the gearbox in the car you can do it..











Cheers

So you took the head off before removing the motor? If so what points did you use to lift the block out?

I´ve taken the block from under the car, without the head. Perhaps he did the same thing.
