[Brian in Tucson]

I suspect my biggest problem will be R&R the engine and trans in my carport. Thanks for the "Good Luck" and I think we are all wishing you well, I think you're going to need the good luck, too.


Mine is coming out because the previous owner neglected it and it's been pretty hot at least a couple of times. My replacement is a factory rebuilt (50,000 mi ago) with an upgraded IMS bearing. Leak down variance is less than 6% and no apparent oil leaks--tho I did replace the crank seal and the rear main seal just because. $2300 plus shipping.

Keep us in the loop & Merry Xmas!
