: Can anyone tell me if dropping my /6 connected
: to my 904 in my 67 Barracuda would not be a
: good idea, or even possible.
:
: I believe I pulled them out together, but that
: was 15 years ago.
:
: Please let me know. Thanks.
: Bob

: No problem, just use both strap mounting holes
: on the top of the head. I use a short seat
: belt so I can easily slide along the space
: to get the correct tilt.
:
: You need the hood off and a "cherry
: picker" with good travel. The trick is
: to angle the engine/ trans in steeply and
: catch the tail of the tranny on a floorjack,
: then you just roll the assembly back as you
: lower and pump-up the floorjack as you go.
: It is way easer then it "reads"
: here.
:
: I put my stroker 170 and tranny into my Dragcar
: with the Hyper-Pak and Headers installed! (
: I took a bunch of PICs but guess what, there
: was no film in the camera on that day -
: oouch!)

: Thanks again for your help Doc.
:
: I will take lots of pictures and share them
: when I drop the engine. I haven't decided
: whether I should drop with my Dutra Duals
: attached.
:
: So a seatbelt strap will hold the weight? I
: would never have guessed that it would.

: Have you considered dropping the K-member and
: bolting the engine/trans to it and then
: lifting the body over it and
: dropping(carefully) the body over the
: assembly? That's the way most of my friends
: do it, especially if it's much of a resto.
