Well, good news on the transmission, it's perfectly fine.

I however, am an idiot. A small piece of plastic from the trim fell into the shifter assembly (the Pro5.0, not inside the transmission) and caused it to hang up instead of going into 1/3/5/R. Whoops. Fixed now, but the car is apart (since I pulled the tranny...) so I'll probably take care of a few other things while it's apart.

At least nothing it broken.

I believe he said an hour and ten minutes and 22 bolts. 8 for the tranny, 4 for the shifter, 4 for the trans brace, 2 for the trans mount, and 4 for the driveshaft

What he said ^.

I was wrong though. 25 bolts. The 22 above + 2 for the slave and 1 for the exhaust (V-band).

But yes, it took an hour and ten minutes. I could probably cut 10-15 minutes off of that if it was a hurry. We should have a race sometime, I change trannies while an F-body changes spark plugs.

Do you split the bellhousing, or pull it all out in one piece? I pull mine out in 2 pieces and its a bit easier. The time sounds about right though. Just think how fast we could do these up on a hoist! I'll race you changing spark plugs in my car... I think you might beat me.

I always pull the body of the tranny off the bellhousing, LOTS easier to deal with, for sure.

It would be great to have a lift. The next house I build (probably 8-10 years from now) will have a pole barn with a concrete floor, heat (at least SOME heat) and a 2 post. Hopefully a TIG, an 80 gallon compressor and a sandblast cabinet also. We'll see, need more income first.
