Ok I am dropping the motor friday. Getting it prepped tonight, have removed trunk lid and engine lid to make things a bit easier for me. Where should I put the jacks in the rear, and where should I put the hydro jack when lifting? Jared (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

You can also use put the jack stands underneath the rearmost of the floorpan. Position the jacks under the longitudinals and also use a long 2x4 to set across the jackstands to sort of cushion the chassis. I've used this method a couple times and its worked pretty well. Suspending the chassis this way also keeps the area clear so you don't have to worry about the engine bar getting caught on the stands. Sorry for the rambling but I just got in from pulling my engine out.
