Today was the day that I dropped the engine. I read alot of posts on this topic, read Waynes book ,and the Bentley manual.
I used a piece of plywood on a pallet truck and placed it under the engine so once I loosened the engine and transmission mounts they would rest on the plywood.
I then raised the car until the fan cleared the bottom of the bumper.
The only snag I had was the input shaft of the tranny got hung up where it passes through the body at the shift rod.It took a bit of adjusting with the pallet truck and another jack and it slipped out.
If it wasn't for this board I never would have attempted this.
Here are the required pictures.
