Vic, first yes to all the above information, I have original aluminum heads, 40 heads on car now. NOW for my QUESTION EVERYONE!!! I removed the rear end from the 39 LZ today, I thought I read that the transmission could be taken out from inside car??? I removed front seat, the question is, do I have to disconnect exhaust and radiator lower hoses, looks like the only way to remove transmission is to jack up rear of motor 4 inches at least to clear cross member, let me know your thoughts.
Things I have tried to do this week, slow cranking motor, took starter off and had cleaned, new cable to solenoid, still not right!

Removed interior front seat and all part that connect to rear end and torque tube. Still have not got shock links off, mystery to me?

Removed the rear end, thought I would finish job easily this evening by pulling transmission and finding out why the clutch is stuck, but can not get transmission out like the little early V8's or model A!!!!
