engine supports are nice , now play nice and dont call me a hack or a shade tree but i just used a piece of 1 1/2 pipe and two ratchet straps . didnt have any problems and it held everything in place for a couple of weeks. if i planned on doing it often then i would probably spring for the support.
the trans wasnt that bad to get out , the first time i did mine i had it on the floor in about 3-4 hours , worst part would have been the bolt on the firewall side of the block all the way at the bottom. call me lucky but when whoever did the motor for the previous owner they left that pia out. its in now but what a pain kinda. alot easier than i thoguth it would be. air tools are a must for this job in my opinion.
