Few stupid ?'s... like your suprised, reinstalling engine Options

[tdgray]

I am going to attempt to reinstall the engine if I can get the engine bay painted over the weekend.

Few dumb questions... I know some of these have been covered but I am not clear.

CV's

1) Is there supposed to be a gasket in between the engine and CV connection?
2) Should I replace the roll pins with new ones?
3) Did we ever determine when replacing the bolts with allen head bolts, what grade they should be and if you want to put a nylock bolt on the back how long they should be?
4) What kind, if any lube should I have handy?

General

1) Is installing the engine as easy as removing it? Am I going to have mucho trouble getting the tin back through the hole? Is there anything I can do to aid in the process.
2) Can I do this by myself or must I ply a freind with beer to get a helping hand?


Thanks as always for entertaining my stupid questions.

Having just done mine last weekend, here is a tip. Use a couple of pieces of sheet metal to help guide the engine into place. I used a real estate sign that I cut in half. Some people use old license plates. Make sure you torque the cv bolts and use the proper washers.
