Hi:

I recently did it the way rhaire described, mine is a Standard M46. It was easy after that. Use a Tranny or Floor jack and let it down only far enough to get at the bolts. Place the jack so the Tranny is balanced when it comes loose. If you let it down too far the Distributor Cap may hit the Firewall possibly breaking it. Like rhaire said, use a long 1/2 extention. Those suckers are tight. I also used another floor jack under the Engine Oli Pan, with a block of wood. To keep the engine coming down with a bang once the Tranny was separated. I used 4 Jackstands (Jacked high), two floor jacks with wooden blocks and alot of muscle. You might have a more civilized arrangement. If you are doing an Automatic. Remember, you have a Conveter to disconnect from the Flexplate. Tie it off so it doesn't fall out when you separate it.
