What can be bolted on when istalling engine/tranny through the bottom?

Bascily what it says. I got a job in the shop where a guy pulled the engine/tranny and I have to reisnall. Can the assesory bracket,accesories,AC compressor, headers, and so forth be installed? Any help is appreciated.

As mentioned, EVERYTHING. Once it's bolted back to the chassis, hook up the PCM/wiring, fuel lines, drive shaft, front brakes, coolant hoses, bleed the system and you're DONE.

lol We make it sound like its too easy...Probably because it is. I will never even attempt to do it from the top. Why do it when you can have easy access to everything.

I pulled mine from the bottom in September with everything still on the motor and i mean everything. I plan on putting it back in the bottom with everything attached. It is much easier putting in from the bottom.

The steering column and master cylinder if a manual. The thing that I have the most problem with is keeping the engine away from the brake lines, everything else is kind of easy. Oh yea, don't forget about your shifter ****, I broke a center console once.
