by the time you are said and done, it's only about 10 bolts and the tranny is out too, and I'm sure it will make things a lot easier on you.
The tranny and motor will come out in one piece from the top, I know that much. -------------------- The fastest car I own is a minivan....

best bet is to pull both the motor and trans at the same time. and then attach the trans to the new motor and slid the whole assembly back in. it will save you the headache of benchpressing the tranny back onto the output shaft.

I believe they're talking about a 1g, but either way, I'm pretty sure that it's a universal procedure with both gens.

I think it would work on a 3/s also...
