Huh? Are you asking about when you take out the trans? It doesn't matter

It doesn't matter. The transmission is being dropped from the car and the clutch assembly and flywheel are connected to the engine. You always should leave the car in gear AND have the parking brake on however since you will be underneath it for quite some time.
