motor swap help ?
I read a few of these and I know a shop here in town, they play it safe and do the raising the car and droping the car on top of the motor/suspension rig.
Please do the same. It will work out better for you this way.

I did it out the bottom. Me and one other guy did it in 5 hours, taking breaks and going to get tools we didnt have. First time, no air tools.
What I didnt get is how people disconnect everything and pick the body up over the car. I lifted the car all the way up, and put jacks under the K member and tranny and lowered it down slowly. I dunno, worked for me. I couldnt imagine pulling it out the top and having to undo all that crap. I barely had to disconnect anything to drop it out the bottom, and everything stayed with it.
