RE: Engine removal without a hoist.
it would be pretty light now......my wifes brother and i dragged the shell of my old r/t from the grage to the road by our selves......there wasnt much left tot he car so it didnt take any work....
ok....i thought your were putting another one in.....but aparently not
what you can do then is exactly what i said uptop, but instead of putting the motor/tranny on blocks, leave it bolted to the car, then set the front of the car flat on the ground.....unbolt the mounts....have a few people lift the car up, and then you and sumone else can easily drag the motor to the side and out of the way

RE: Engine removal without a hoist.
what i'm doing is actually going to be rebuilding that engine (depending on its condition...247k on it) and then swapping it into my red Neon. and my green one will then become my car just to randomly work on...and a parts car lol.
