Ok after d*cking around last weekend and not doing a damn thing. I am happy to report that:
It is back in!!
Trans back in!
But, now the gear stick doesn't come up in the same position as the later s30s
Off to a good home!
So I tried getting the pulley off and no luck...so I have to use a puller during the week. Also I need to change the intake this week and finish the brake lines. I am going to have to run a new rear line so I can plumb in the wilwood prop valve in. I am sure I will find a few more while I am at it deals but at least the motor is back in!
