A friend is doing an engine rebuild on his BJ8 right now. He removed the
passenger seat, the transmission tunnel and raised the emergency brake handle
straight up by removing the pin from the brake cable. Unbolting the trans from
the block, he lifted it up and swung it over and out the passenger door. He
removed the carbs, generator and distributor from the block and hoisted it
right out. He will reassemble the reverse to this. Very easy and clean removal
of the block , or just the transmission, with this technique, especially with
the shroud on the car.> Date: Sat, 17 Nov 2007 10:31:13 -0800> From:
