Did my first transmission removal on the F-body. All in all I give it a 5/10 on the difficulty level. Took me and a friend a little under 2 hours to remove including a 20 minute tool run, with a floor jack and the car off the ground 19".
What i noticed while doing this is that if you have LTs you wont be able to get to the top bolts as easy as i did with shorties. But it took around 25 minutes to unbolt the transmission from the block when i lowered the tailshaft enough to get to the top bolts with the impact gun.
Ive done swaps before on my 69 camaro but this was my first rodeo with my 93. Now im waiting on the stall and gears, and then ill put everything together.
