b-series in an EF you have to have the trans side way lower to get it to clear the chassis mount, then you can put the trans mount on. d-series is cake though, ---- faced drunk is the only way to make it not so boring. |

Re: dumbass questions x3
I do all my swaps at home, since I dont have a engine puller I jack the car up really high slide the engine under on 2 jacks, then lower the car on the engine.
the last time I rebuilt my engine I did it in 3 pieces since I was by myself. I install the block the car, then the tranny, and then the head, it was simple. but a crx might me different. and yes, always change your water pump, and timing belt while you have the engine out. |
