RE: [DMCForum] jacking up the engine

Hey Eric, glad to see you haven't sold the car yet.  I don't think you will
have any problems doing this, especially after the weekender with Ryder's
car at Brian's.

The worst part I know about would be breaking off part of the block where
the engine mounts.  Mark V. removed his entire engine and transmission and
did a really nice job of cleaning up the engine bay and engine.  He has a
link somewhere on what he did so maybe he will reply with that for you.

Subject: [DMCForum] jacking up the engine

Hey everyone!

I am thinking about dropping my oil pan to fix a leaky plug and seal- so far
my debate is whether or not the job is too big for me to handle because of
having to jack the engine up a little bit to get to those hidden bolts. Just
how hard is that to do? Other than the two motor mounts, is there anything
else that has to be undone/loosened to move the engine?

Thanks!
