Default Philadelphia, I can use some help.

I am trying to get my T56 in and its just too tight on my 240sx. I removed a TH350 and I am swapping it to manual trans. Anyhow I am posting on the forums for a little help. I only have 2 options, cut the floor open which requires removing a rollcage, dash, seats and carpet ( dont like this option) , or lowering the engine/ crossmember down and inch or twp and mate them and then jack them in place.

I am trying to find an engine lift, the ram on mine is missing, but no luck yet. So if your interested in helping me work on my Spec sponsored LS/T56 Nissan 240sx and have an engine crane and maybe a tall floor jack please let me know.

Yuingling is on tap, and Chickies and petes is up the block, dinner on me

I can buy a ram, they are about 100 bucks, I just dont want to spend a extra hundred, I rather ask for help and treat to some food and beer. Plus offer my help in return some day. I believe in helping others/.

Mine has been in for 3 years so this isn't a swap kit. If he uses a kit I suggest daft innovations. Rich makes nice stuff and he sold me all my T56 stuff (lines, remote bleed, CMC and braket, and even the T56 crossmember. His headers are also very nice for the money.
