first question... so everyone knows.

what are you trying to accomplish? just pulling the motor? tearing down to the short block to see what's wrong?

[Breecher_7]

i have unbolted everything off the front of the block need to pull the motor and replace it since i blew a piston threw the block. just looking for someone to help me with pullin this one doing a cam rockers push rods timing chain on the new block and put it in the car i will bolt the rest of the car up myself

[Breecher_7]

You pullin it out the top or unbolting the K-member and rolling the whole shit out?

[TraNs_aM]

You both think eachother are pieces of shit, i know the story.....

lol funny thing is i'm getting so desperate the thought has actually crossed my mind

[TraNs_aM]

its comming out the top i woulda did threw the bottom but i dont have a lift

[HAMRHEAD]

Do it through the bottom. You don't need a lift just some jackstands (4) and a decent jack. Did it 3 times so far like that and it works better than trying to get it through the top.

Here's some pics of when I did it a few years ago. The block just needs to be torn down to a shortblock.

Wasn't to tuff and fairly quick. Just slide it out the wheel well area then.

So a guy who was partly responsible for wrecking a guys 383 thinks the customer is a POS? Good business.

I've pulled the shortblock w/ an auto trans out through the top with the hood still on the car. not too bad. just need to attach the chain the right way :)

ya i can't get the chain to the middle of the block so i have it at the end of the heads was thinking that would prob work

damn wish i woulda known that before i have a video of people doing it threw the bottom but i'm already so far and so close to do it threw the top just stuck cuz i can't get the tranny to break apart from the block

[HP ADDICT]

There are some tricky bolts on the top

Get a clue before you chime in. Hearing both sides and the details helps. :thumbsup

was told there was one on top that u had to get from behind the motor and 3 on each side i think if i recall.......

[HAMRHEAD]

correct 7 bolts and there are the 2 plugs on the sides that help hold it together. You can use a pry bar and help it seperate. A little on each side at a time. Also make sure the trans is supported as the weight will make it harder to separate.

ya my current delay is the headers in the way i unbolted them but was hoping it would pull out while they lay there and then get them later now i gotta jack the car up to unpry the trans just so frustrated with the car need someone to help motivate me to get back to wanting to work on it i always start getting stuff done and then get stuck and then no one to give me pointers

Have you heard both or only your bf forests?

And you heard both sides correct? (Not on either side just asking?)

[Breecher_7]

Have you heard both or only your bf forests?

I have heard both and I know the details. Both sides have good arguments to say the least. :thumbsup

Did I ever tell you that? or say that to anyone? We have a history like paul said. That is all. Paul is not a customer of mine either. We both have our opinions of each other and i choose to keep mine to myself. I have always believed that anything can be worked out by dicussion between the involved parties, not other people. :thumbsup

[T-Bag]

This thread is turning into a Paul vs Forest shitfest and neither of them instigated it. You could have just left your joke out of this Breecher. I understand it was just a joke but you should have known it would start shit.
