Hi all, I am about to pull the B16 from my '58 444. I would be interested in hearing from anyone that his done this job. It looks like it might be easier to pull the eng/trans as a unit, as it looks like the upper transmission bolts (10mm socket heads) will be very hard to get to (B16 with H6 3spd.). I might be able to reach them if I remove the drive shaft and trans mount and drop the rear down, but it seems if I am going to have to do all that I might as well get the whole thing at once, if possible. I have so far left the front fenders and apron on the car, the hood is removed, BTW.
I will be replacing the 'old' B16 3spd. with a rebuilt B16/M40.
Any thoughts/expert opinions/tips appreciated!
Cheers!
OK
