Default dropping motor back in question (wrong section?)

Can i put all the accessories back on the motor like the ud pulley, water pump, ac pump, and everything else that goes on the front of the motor, and put the motor back in from the top. I just want to know what is the easiest way to get it back in. My buddies and I took all the **** off when we pulled it out, but if we can get away with put everyhting back on and dropping in it that be awesome. Remember we are dong it from the top as well.

I doubt it. I took mine out from the top and the crank snout barely cleared with turning the motor to the side. Add the crank pully on that and I dont think ull have enough room. i even took my intake manifold off for added clearence up top. I definatly wouldnt put the powersteering on as ull need the bolt holes in the head to lift the motor.

You can pull it out with the heads? I thought it had to be a short block coming from up top.

I pulled mine with the heads on it. I just took the intake manifold off to keep from cracking it since its plastic.
