I'm planning on dropping the engine out of my 1974 2.0 liter 914. I've got my car on a BackYard Buddy drive on lift. I have a concern that the clearances between the ramps could interfere with engine removal.
Does anyone know the measurements across the engine? Thanks for the help. |

I think he is talking width, not height.

QUOTE(NARP74 @ Jul 16 2022, 02:35 PM)  I think he is talking width, not height. Yes, that right. Im looking for the width across the engine, dont want the tire ramps to get held up on the engine when I lift the car body off the engine. Thanks to everyone for your help. |
