- It seems most prefer over the top rather than underneath. To add more information, here is the process I was told. Again, I think the idea is intriguing, but if it is not possible or just not safe I'

- Interesting. The reason you can't do it with an overdrive is probably overall length; i.e. it gets hung up on the permanent crossmember, unless you remove the OD first separately, which is messy, and

- I have done it this way several times, with an o/d transmission. However, just pulling the transmission back is not quite enough. You have to unbolt the clutch pressure plate from the flywheel also.

- I flat don't believe it will work. Fisher Jones, who has worked on every LBC known to man, says he tried it once, just to see. The tranny wouldn't come out. By the time you move it far enough back to

- yes indeed a pox. then when you have it out, save yourself lots of agony, and throw it all away and bolt in that 215 Buick. How many times do you want to go though this ?

- I think you may very well be right. But I speculated you could disconnect all the engine accessories (and radiator?), and push the engine forward and up slightly (supported by a floor jack), and actu

- Wrong! It works. Although with my O/D transmission, it is not easy. Its a tight squeeze in and out. I've done it four times now over the past 17 years on my 71BGT. Although it saves on some work (rad

- Hi Dave, You really see drilling a hole in the bellhousing area and accessing the clutch retsining bolts one at a time while having to rotate the crank 180 degrees between bolts as easier than pullin

- I almost missed this message. And to confuse you more, the engine hoist is not really a major factor in deciding to go underneath. Time before last, when I was just replacing the clutch, I actually p

- OK, suit yourselves. All I'll say is that it just isn't that tough a job to remove the B engine and transmission. I've done 3 of my own without a helper. It also helps that I own a knock-down engine
