Pulling a 318 and 904 together- advice please!

If you are not draining the fluid from the tranny, get a lid from spray bomb can and tape it to the output shaft using duct tape. Make sure it is on there really good or it will pop off and leak like an SOB. If you are not removing the hood, loosen the back bolts and remove the front two. Then, get a broom handle and prop that sucker up as far as it will go, you'll need the extra clearance to get it high enough to clear the rad support.

Invest in an engine leveler from Harbor Freight, Northern Tool, or Pep Boys. It will be ths best $20 you spend...
