New Rookie Question about Removing 32 Engine

[cas3]

Her's a leveler I made, if you are a fabber kinda guy. Also good for painting. Also, put some grease on the intake gasket, then they can be easily removed and re used

Glen,


I prefer doing it without help which seems to result in noticeably fewer paint chips. But in any event, it's not a job to be rushed.

I would recommend some guide bolts to help line up the trans to the engine take two longer bolts and cut the heads off, screw them finger tight into engine flange on opposite sides. I do put a slot in the end of the guide bolts, so a screw driver can remove them. Once you are lined up and close then just rotate the trans slightly until the spline lines up.

It would seem that the unique limitations of a '32 center cross member are not widely known as much of the well-meaning counsel above applies mostly to post-'32 chassis.
