I recently removed the engine on my 73 for the first time. I used Wayne Dempsey's write-up from Pelican and it was very helpful. But I would have benefited from more detail to take some of the remaining mystery out of the procedure. Attached is a pdf of what I did in my engine removal. I thought I'd post it for any other newbies that are contemplating doing this for the first time. If there are any mistakes, please let me know. Special thanks to Brad Smith from Rennlist for compressing the file so that it would be small enough to attach to this thread.
