In my old shop I had a walking beam. In my new shop the chain fall is in an adjustable, but fixed location above the engine compartment, SO, if I leave the trans in the car I will have to build a sling or other support so I can move the car back to put the replacement engine on the chainfall. I do indeed have a load balancer.
When changing engines in the past I have always preferred to leave the transmission in the car. Sometimes it is necessary to pull it with the engine. I am curious if anyone familiar with the breed indicates that the engine won't fit through the engine compartment with trans still in place. I plan on pulling the radiator.
