Reply to "Removal-Installation of Engine with ZF"

I had some time when I got off work this morning to go down and work on the car.

Here are few photos of putting the transaxle and engine together, hanging the motor, and the final motor installation.

After reading through a ton of old posts, asking a ton of questions, and getting help and advice from all of the great members here, the process went pretty smooth.

We had some issues with the motor mounts hanging up on the A/C compressor initially. We also ended up partially putting the assembly and taking it out three times. This was primarily due to needing to adjust the chains so the engine balancer would slide under the rear of the roof line.

Other than that it went pretty smooth. We left the distributor out, fuel pump off, and took the oil filter off for the install. I was going to put the starter on before installation but I did not readily know where the nut and one bolt were.
