i really should only need a minimal amount of help...everything is off the motor basically no water pump, no pulley, no intake, no wiring harness...all in boxes at this point...just need to undue two motor mount bolts, tq arm bolts & one tranny crossmember bolt and then just put the thing on the hoist i just want at least 1 or 2 people to spot and help move **** around since 1000lbs of motor & tranny isnt always easy to negociate

I just wanted to say thanks to Rich, Justin, Tyler, Tim & matt for showing up to give me a hand pulling the motor today...within about 3 hrs we had the motor out and separated from the tranny...i ordered the correct size bolts to attach the motor to my stand...unfortunatly i had some water in one of the cylinders So ive got to tear off at least one of the heads to see what damage is done but other than that all went well.

Thanks again,
Bill

Let us know how that cylinder looks when you pop that head off. Good thing we decided to pull the plugs....who knows what may have happened if we didn't.
