I hope to get my "crate" installed this weekend. Got any tips for wrestling in the SM465 back in when the time comes?
yeah buddy, it helps that I'm retired.....have time now!...pulling the trans/transcase was fairly easy, I have a transmission jack...pulled them as a unit, I installed the 465 by itself then the 205 w/adapter after that ...and ended up having my son help me align the transcase/crossmember ,just couldnt get it by myself...just wish I knew trans was bad when I had the engine out!!!let us know when you get yours running!!!my engine runs great, real happy with it..have less than 50 miles on it so far though..
