just got the nut off the axle.. the head off the block everything disconnected..

incase everyone didnt already know to show you how big of a dumbass i am the reason the engine didnt come off the tranny is cause the starter was still on the ------- engine :1

if all goes well i should have the car running by the end of this week

i fucked myself for tonight at work tho because i havent gone to sleep yet :1

working 10 more hours after you just got off a 16 hour shift and a 1 hour drive home isnt fun :1

yes it took me 10 hours to get that ****** off

but now EVERYTHING is disconnected.. i broke some small ---- off that prolly needed replacing anyways some gas line fittings ---- with some wierd *** screw idk wtf it is :1

i wish i had decent tools.. or atleast some decent hmt members arround me to help out.. but oh well ---- em











hmt garage ftw

aka all i gotta do now is d/c the clutch cable get the starter off.. push engine to the side drop tranny get tranny out of the way then drop the engine on the ground cause i dont give a ---- about it

then im gonna change the gaskits on my engine head and valve cover change the oil pump change the water pump timing belt and t stat then connect it to my old tranny and drop the entire ****** in from the top

alot easier said than done and with my shitty luck im bound to ---- something up

Jesus, I can swap a D series in and out running and driving in less than 10 hours. WTF are you doing so wrong? The starter is like always the very first thing I disconnect when dropping a tranny. How do you like doing things the hard way? :P

6 hours and you have a lift and air tools? How long of breaks are you taking? In my tiny *** garage and my cave man tools I could have an engine out in less then an hour and had trannies down to about 2.5 hours taken out and put back in on the road. I guess it just comes from having my project car as my daily driver. When ---- broke I couldn't afford any downtime and had to have ---- on the road asap.
