Never thought of doing that but heck it makes sense to me. Thank you. A very wise man told me once to ask stupid questions because sometimes you get good answers. He also said there was only 2 things worth investing good money in... 1) a good bed 2) a good pair of shoes... because you gonna spend half your life in one and the other half in the other.

Roll the motor forward. lots of room then.

Unbolt the 2 top mounts from the radiator side support, just 1 nut/1 bolt per mount, and swing it up and over. Then use a ratchet strap across the alternator on the support bar and then hook to the radiator support and ratchet a couple times. Motor will roll forward (won't fall tho, lower mounts will hold it in place) and give you plenty of room.
