Closer picture of the tractor supply piece. It's all one chunk.


FWIW here's my engine support


If you need endlinks or control arms.. it's a good time to do them. ScottyDoggs brought both IIRC and did the while I did the trans swap.


An idea of how high I put the cars


If you have an ATV jack.. it's perfect for this job. I used one for almost every single trans swap I did on a 3800


When tail down.. it's so nice


Found the resizer tool pic. I like WSTE's way, but was doing too many and just bought the darn thing cheap off ebay


Pretty sure this was right after I put the pan back onto my first rebuild


Talk about mess lol.

Happened across this.. so I was going through the JY one day and saw a GTP that had rolled. bell housing was broken, engine mount torn in half... 40K miles. Snagged the engine because it was well worth the 125 bucks. here's what the oil pan looked like, I took the chance and it was a great engine.
