Does someone have a engine hoist that I could borrow. I know this is a big favor that I am asking. But I would appreciate it more than you know.
Let me know! -------------------- Thanks, Bud!

 Nevermind about the hoist! I got it out last night about 10:30 pm. I thought it through sense I got such a big response on the hoist  .I dropped it instead of pulling it. Yep  , Dropped it right out the bottom. I unhooked everything and to my surprise, the 2G has only one motor mount and three tranny mounts. So I stripped it down so it would go out the bottom. I had my girl running the jack and me in the car, man handling the motor. I then set the motor on the ground and then I jacked the car up. After the car was high enough I pulled the motor from underneath. Now the engine is ready for me to tear into some more and see if there is any more damage.Here are some pics if you care to look. Buds engine drop! -------------------- Thanks, Bud!

Probably easier than pulling it actually!
 I would have let you use my hoist, but I've got a motor to get out of my tuck, put one back in, my father-in-law was next in line, then the vr-4.... It will be august by the time it's free....

It is really no big deal about the hoist. I didn't figure I would get a response, as not to many people have one.
I am very inventive, LOL! -------------------- Thanks, Bud!
