Hello list, My 69 Sprite tends to slip out of fourth gear unless I keep my hand on the gear stick. It's annoying to say the least and I know I will have to deal with it. My question is, how feasible

Frank can do it in less than 1.5 hours. I did it Tuesday night, 2 hours round trip, including unbolting old and re-bolting new gearbox to the engine. I also had to modify the motor of the Harbor Frei

Yep, and how come (it seems) we're always in a hurry??? Last time we pulled an engine we had an engine hoist only 60 feet away..... But if we would have used it it would have put us over the 1 hour t

Rob: Always easier with two, but not that difficult with one. You will need a cherry picker and a tilt device. The hardest thing to me, when operating as one, is aligning up the transmission tunnel b

Sometimes you need a third guy to steer it out, esp in a 1500, where the front sheetmetal doesn't unbolt! http://home.comcast.net/~kvcbk/engine2.jpg -=Chris <--Original Message--> .. I used to do it

I have always done this unassisted with both 1500 and A-series engines. It is even possible to do it unassisted and without any form of hoist, but not recommended. I have a small pulley system off a

Hello Robert, not having yet done it, i can't say EXACTLY how hard it is, BUT its my understanding that the datsun is the same length as the healey tranny, so you use the same driveshaft and rear end

I've just replaced the engine and Gear-box (as one unit) in "Oggibip", my '59 AN5. (Thanks Paul A. for all the help, and for the excellent kit). Two things I did to make it simpler as I was working

Would you like to elucidate how you did this with an engine that weghed a lot more than you did. It's okay to exaggerate and you HAVE done things that most of us wouldn't attempt, but you really are

Ron, I'm not sure what you mean. You hang the engine and tranny both from the "system" and they can be moved independently? Like they are not connected? Or do you mean it is like a load rotor that le
