The engine is out of the car on a stand. I was just going to hang it off of the Engine hoist, maybe set it down on the oil pan on the floor so I can install the flywheeel and align the bellhousing. Does anyone have any tips or tricks on how to get this done?

Thank you. I am very happy with the way it is turning out. It is actually the OEM color for the 56 Dodge that it is going into. 6608769-408acc.jpg (43 downloads) Scott 1956 Dodge Custom Royal Lancer (408 Stroker, 4 Wheel Disc Brakes, Rack & Pinion, 6 speed) 2002 Dodge Ram 1500 Quad Cab 1976 Corvette
