installing engine and tranny tomorrow

[girlpower92]

ok should i put the engine and tranny in as one or would it be easer to install the engine or tranny first then put the other part on after one of them is bolted in and anytips on making this easy and fast this is for a 1g awd thanks

Mount the trans to the block out of the car, and drop them in as 1 unit. Make sure to double check every single bolt that you tighten, all wires and connectors are plugged in.

is that the easy way of doing it ?

Yes it is. I did the same on my motor swap last weekend. I warn you to be very careful of your A/C condenser. We were pulling my 7-bolt at around 2 AM and didn't notice a bracket digging into it until it rapidly started spraying freon into the air. We took it as an opportunity for some weight reduction.

much easier as mentioned above, one unit!
