Parts 1 and 2 bolt to the manifold and to the block. If does aren't off it will not move.

I feel your pain man. I pulled an STD manifold. I took me 2 trips. The first time I only had about an hour before they closed so I got it unbolted from the head but couldn't get it off. The next day I went back and after unbolting the 2 that hold it to the block I realized that the engine was sitting on the ground on top of the downpipe. I had to get a jack under it to get it off so I would have enough room to unbolt the cat. Luckly I go to that jy quite a bit and stash useful stuff like pry bars and jacks when I find em.

sorry to hear about the bad day at the junk yard.

the std manifolds i pulled just had those brackets bolted to the manifold and not to the block. didn't have any problem getting off the car.

I have to drive to Toronto for that flate rate deal. So far, I've only found a couple decent jy's in Buffalo. Most of em are a ripoff.

i have never hold of a flat rate u pull , so this means if u show up in the morning and pay like 40 bucks, then u go pull like a motor and whatever u want, as long as u are able to, u dont have to pay anything but the flat rate??

I heard about this one time, two guys payed like $60 each to get whatever they wanted, the story goes to say they got a b18 out and between the two carried outside so they paid $120 for the whole engine. Anything you can carry. Beleive it if you want, i'm not so sure it ever happened, but hey the story goes around. It is now like a legend

Did you hear about the 88 turbo crx legend driving from Ca to washington and pulling up to Jeffs house and some hard revs
i quoted him to say
"Ls/Vtec came to my house, disrespected my crx"
That was it, he was afraid of the 185 tires for sure
