Well, the engine is out!!!! What a PITA. I was able to get it out the top, not easy but possible. I spent a fair amount of time trying to decide which looked easier, top or bottom. I removed the transmission to clean it and remove a broken bolt in the mount, slid the torque tube back. At this point I still hadn't decided which way to pull the motor. Dropping out the bottom looked okay, but it looked like if I removed the brake booster and master cylinder it would come right out the top. So I did and it did!!..
What an adventure....... and its just beginning..
