Thread: pulling engine forward...

I like how they were too cheap to sleeve the holes like gm does in the aluminum blocks for head bolts. I am lucky neither of my trucks have blown out a plug.

My crown blew a plug on my wife one night scared the crap out of her
cost 175 to get fixxed my buddys shop has a rigged tool that makes tapping it and all that easy

Just put a ratchet strap on it and pull it forward. 10x faster and easier.

Its not bad now that I took all the brackets off the back and have headers. There was not room stock for my arms. You guys must be skinny...lol.

its easy, no removing of mounts or anything, i just reach under all the hoses from the pasenger side with ratchet and socked and change them, hardest part is trying to pull the plug wire off of the one that has the o2 sensor in the way.
