Installed my rebuilt engine and transmission today. Fairly straightforward job. Had a engine hoist and transmission jack. The only tough part was wrestling in the drivers side mount. There was a little stud that didn't want to go right in. Ended up loosening the mount from the block and tightening down on the motor mount nut. Some more lifting and prying got it to set in place.

All thats left to do is hook up the exhaust, driveshaft, shifter, and drop the radiator and fan in place. Still have to put in the adjustable clutch cable and firewall adjuster and new speedometer cable as well.

Have to figure out how to make my pics smaller so I can upload some engine shots.
