I'm not sure whether it makes a difference, but I spent some time tonight just
trying to plan out the order in which I am
going to hook up everything after reinstalling the engine. I'm thinking -
1) Trans connections - slave cylinder, reverse switch, speedo drive, starter
2) Crossmember & restraint rod
3) Driveshaft
4) Tighten front engine mounts (including removing/replacing steering rack)
5) Shift lever
6) Intake manifold, carb, exhaust system, air cleaner, fan, alternator
7) Remaining underhood connections - hoses, etc.
8) Radiator shroud, radiator
9) Fluid refills - brake, coolant, gearbox top-off, oil top-off, steering rack
10) Bleed brakes
11) Charge battery
This sound about right, for the major items?
