That wasn't to bad. I was able to separate the eng/trans a few inches a "beat" the shield in between the flexplate and up/over the shuffle pins. Back tomorrow to pickup where I should have been today!
When doing a higher-end build like this do you use a torque-plate when boring the cylinder? Just curious.
Well the first thing done was to remove the Brown Dog mounts, hated them!

What motor mounts did you end up using? I've been running the Brown Dog mounts on my 01 XJ for a couple years and I've yet to ever get used to the increased NHV that they created. I like that my engine stays put and my fan doesn't eat up my Aluminum radiator... but I'd like it better if it didn't make my rig shake like an '84 Camaro... :\

Stinkyfab had their own bushings poured out of the softest material that will hold up. Very comparable to stock on the durometer. Slightly more vibe than an OEM bushing but WAY better than the competition, or even his older mounts using off the shelf bushings.
