Hello all, I hope you are doing well.
I had a question regarding dropping the engine. I have a 1972 914-4 1.7L. Is it possible to separate the engine from the trans before dropping it so that I don't have to drop the trans as well? I looked at the article on the pelican forums and it only shows the procedure dropping the engine in tandem with the trans. Some Google searching yielded no good results either... and I'd rather not mess with the CV joints. Thanks in advance for the help! |

Its pretty easy to pull the trans while leaving the engine in, never seen someone try to do it the other way. Would probably be more trouble then it is worth as without the engine the trans would pretty much fall on the floor anyways. Short answer, NO! Ok great thanks very much for the quick responses. Looks like I'm dropping the trans too. Edit: Thanks you as well Jim, you snuck in before I could post (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) |
