Kats, I used a pneumatic cutoff wheel and an angle grinder. And no, the engine wasn't out at the time I did mine. The Dremel is OK but the cutoff wheels are a bit expensive. It's probably easiest to cut it off about an inch or so away from the frame on both sides then cut it off at the frame. This gives you a little bit more maneuvering room. Also, get the jackstands as high as possible, I'm not a big guy but still had problems getting "comfortable". I have an old removeable e-brake bracket from Pantera Performance available that I had to modify a bit but it will still work. If you're interested e-mail me at mgreen15"at"adelphia.net. I can get you a picture if you like.
