Thats a nice write up. But if you have a lift availabe the best way to remove the engine is to take it out the bottom by removing the k member. Its 100 times easier and you dont have to remove alot of stuff before you drop it.

 

[firstonraceday]

^^^ yea I was thinking about doing that but im not sure i have enough space in my garage...

 

[ripper]

You have to be able to raise the car about 5 feet. You drop the motor on a dolly and disonnect the engine hoist WALA. lol The higher you can get the car the easier on your back it is.


ps change your motor mounts and water pump before installing new motor. If you have shorties you can install the motor with them on. Longtubes wait till trani is back in. ( if you got longtubes spring for a new starter too)

wow thanks man....

 

[firstonraceday]

Are you repairing this motor and putting it back in? Or getting a new motor?

"building" the one thats in there now romeo blocks are goor for about 500 horse aren't they?

 

[19mustang95]

the block is good for much more than 500

 

[firstonraceday]

good

 

[St33da]

wow thanks man....

no problem... just remember that these instruction were most likely written by an engineer rather than a mechanic, so the wording is not so great. just use some common sense and it shouldnt be so bad. i can post the engine rebuild process for a 01 GT if you would like, to assist you in your PI build.

thad be great... im trying to gather as much info as I can on pulling the motor and rebuilding it...this will obviousle be my first time. :noes:

 

[AaRoN]

i am doing this same thing (mine's a 98). pulling the 98 and installing an 01.

 

[Dalamar]

cool, good luck with the build and assembly.
the stock block is good to 1000 HP!

what all are you puting in there?

HOLY SH*T WOW :banana: :banana: :banana: thanks for all the info man..... where the hell do you get all this stuff? :drunk:

im a mechanic.... i get it from the program we use at the dealership

 

[firstonraceday]

cool, good luck with the build and assembly.
the stock block is good to 1000 HP!

what all are you puting in there?

MMR mod 900 shortblock , FRPP PI Heads , Pi intake , and some custom cams.. are in the future

 

[97gtconv.]

looks like u took that info right out of Workshop Manual. it comes in very handy!
