Never did this on a F-body but i would loosen trans mount bolts and or motor mounts to make life easier. Just dont scratch that Thermal coating! <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

Good that you have a lift... In some cases it takes about 3 people.. You must disconnect the transmission crossmember from the body (4 bolts). Let it hang down a bit and have someone or 2 pry the engine/trans over to the drivers side while you slide it in.. I would also make sure you re-routed your wires before installing that side!!!

Like they said but you have to have it just right and like three people or it wont work. Pry the trany over as far as possible , take the heat shield off and the starter. I just did these and never again. Good luck, man do they sound nice. <img src="graemlins/fluffy.gif" border="0" alt="[Fluffy]" />
