Turbone Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 I tell ya, pulling a EG33 is like passing a kidney stone I still need to pull the tranny and get the other engine/tranny prepped. New belts/tensioners, etc. Then hopefully my sale doesnt fall thru this month :-\ If I ever mention wanting another SVX project, I want anyone close by to hit me upside the head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVOthis Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 thats ok....it might be a bear to pull out...but at least you dont have an 85 bolt timing cover like the EZ30's some bolts of varying lengths... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screwbaru2 Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Looks like it would have been easier with the hood removed. One of the 1st things I do when removing an engine. They are a lot of engine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbone Posted April 6, 2009 Author Share Posted April 6, 2009 I can't drive my car anywhere. Hmm? Get a hold of me. Looks like it would have been easier with the hood removed. One of the 1st things I do when removing an engine. They are a lot of engine! Normally, I remove hoods. But these are not light and theres just enough room to get it out. I might take it off to get the engine/tranny back in, as I'm thinking of doing it in one shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthWet Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Rob, what was your biggest hassle in pulling the engine? I am looking at either pulling an engine or tranny to see if I have a trashed flexplate, and am looking for the least painful method. (Maybe just shift the engine forward and mess with the plate while standing on my head???) I have a knocking noise that does not seem to increase under load (actually decreases under certain conditions), and I am thinking flexplate. Just looking at the engine, it didn't look like it would be that much different from an EA/EJ removal... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
