Engine removal screw-up

[dazsa]

I was removing the motor from my 79-300cd last night and I had the leveler position wrong initially and the motor would not tilt enough. The motor shifted and bent the area where the hood latches. I had plyboard in front of the A/C radiator, but it bent that area forward. I hope it will be easy to remedy. I guess the removal of the other motor will go better...now.

Any similar experience?

Thanks, Don
