Default removing engine?

this is how it sits right now... transmission still attached. should i just unbolt the transmission from the back side of the motor or pull it out with the transmission. i plan on putting it back in the car with a new k member from underneath fully assembled with wires and manifold already bolted on. but im getting the itch to do something while waiting for the motor to get finished.

You could get it out the top so easily with just that. It's not that hard when the re's nothing on the block. Leave the tranny attatched when you pull it too.
