Never tried it on that era. How far are you in to the job?

A couple on here find it easy but so far I have seen nothing but headaches in motor pulls/swaps as far as the time it takes... and usually needing 2 humans for parts of it AND nickle and dime stuff like trans lines and fittings, trans fluid (expensive), clamps, hoses, anti-freeze, brake fluid, power steering fluid AND the things you should do while the motor is out like timing chains, water pumps... different sensors in different places causing wiring issues..

I mean in the end you really do come out ahead but it is a rough ride.

I'm in the middle of 2 right now and if it were not for the help I'm getting I would have dropped it by now.

You might be younger and have more friends than I do LOL but it barely outweighs the effort in my opinion.
