My new stock stroke 400 build

I always take the hood off as step 1.
I drive it several times before it goes back on.

That was the original plan for today. I was just going to check to see if the hoist cleared the hood. :rolleyes:
 
Well Don I did end up having to take the hood off. I also had to lower the torsion bars right down which dropped the front end 5 inches. The engine and transmission are out now. I had to clean the garage floor after making a huge mess.

I took the transmission off and set the engine in its cradle with two home made wheel dollies under it so I can roll it around and after I remove the rest of the accessories. roll it under the bench. You can see the red dirt on top of the transmission tailshaft.

I probably will before I put the plugs back in. I had to turn it over to remove the converter bolts and it turns pretty easy.
