[QUOTE="GM2Ford, post: 15585134, member: 142902"] I'm getting ready to connect the transmission to the engine, but I haven't decided yet if I want to either put it in through the top or bottom. I have much experience going through the top with the engine and transmission together, but never with long tubes as well... I'm interested in going through the bottom because I want to assemble the engine complete together with the supercharger, accessories, pulley's etc. [LIST] [*]The car is sitting on semi truck jack stands with 3 additional "2 by 6" small pcs of wood on each jack stand to be raised higher. [*]I have a 1000lb table jack that I was going to use to jack the engine, trans, and LT's. [*]I'd have to drop the tubular K-Member, assemble it to the engine, then bolt everything up. [/LIST] The bottom seems like it's way more work than going through the top. How hard is it to install the engine/trans/LT's from the top with the steering shaft removed? [/QUOTE]
