To quote Haynes:

"Installation is the reverse of removal".



My car doesn't have an engine. I'm sure someone else can give you actual help.

What type and year engine? What year car? Sideshifter or tailshifter transmission?
We'll need some more details to answer your questions.

And of course:

Yeah, I did it about a couple weeks ago for the first time (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) I referred to the tech article on this site in order to drop it off.
There was no help at that time but I'd had a re-installation practice several times out of the car. Observed how the engine move up. Alignment, angle, balance and maybe timing were the key for me.
I would definitely get a help next time w/some (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif)
Oh, don't forget to replace the engine tin seals if there are gone. I never knew how important they were until I had the new seals in there.

Good luck!
