Dropping my 318 out need help

Chad, I've done the removal from underneath. Someone asked me off-line how I got the K-frame & V-8 swap accomplished on my 72 Demon (Check out the thread). I had seen pictures in magazines of cars on lifts with the engine, transmission, steering, & K-frame all assembled waiting for the body to be lowered on to it. Since it's impossible to paint the engine compartment with the engine installed, this was a big deal. I had horsed LA V-8s with the oil filter adapter out of the top before. They always scraped the passenger side splash shield. Assembly from below made the best sense.
Well, I didn't have a lift for the body, so I used a field expedient. I had a free rolling platform on which the K-frame et al was assembled. I had two jack stands and an engine hoist. Unfortunately I did not take pictures. The car was supported on the rear axle by the jack stands. I rigged the engine hoist to lift the car at the vertical strut that is under the hood latch. Then it was a matter of disconnecting front brake lines, top shock mounts, steering column, upper control arms, and of course the 4 bolts on the K-frame. The car tilted up the the old stuff fell out.
Since there was no engine in the car when I got it, it had to be raised further. The engine hoist had plenty of lift height. I slid the assembly under the car and slowly began to lower. The dipstick from the 904 was going to try to hang up the operation, so I removed it. Other than that it was smooth going. I lowered until I got the body about 1/4 inch from the K-frame. I put two bolts (left front & right rear) through the K-frame to the body using this process sliding the dolly around until both lined up, to get the K-frame properly aligned with the body. Once I had the two bolts lined up, the others were no problem. I let the tension out of the lift and bolted the K-frame onto the body.
Once everything was disconnected, the actual time of lifting and bolt twisting on the K-frames was a one man job that took only twenty minutes. I felt it was safer than having a motor swinging around three feet in the air. Also I did not need to take the hood off.
Good luck.
