Re: pulling engine?
In the other hand, removing the engine and trans together means having to remove the shift tower, disconnecting the brake pedal from the rods and probably removing the pedals too to be safe, undoing those 6 bolts on the clamshell over the u-joint (which are a real pita to replace if you're going to use the castle nuts and cotter pins) and having to deal with nearly a couple hundred extra pounds on the end of your engine crane. You'll likely have to remove the headlight cross bar too because the extra length of the unit will make it hard to bring it over the bar.
