Because this thread just took a bump, I looked it over. I notice Imann's BellHousing is also a Hydro A833 ready dual pattern too.

Amazing write up! Have been following step-by-step and things are going smoothly.

To anyone who has done this, did you have to loosen the motor mounts to tip the engine? My engine/TC are hanging free on the engine and the darn thing won't tip! Just thought I'd check before I started unbolting things. haha

My motor mounts might have been worn out bad enough the engine just rocks back on its own. Try pulling the bolts that go through the motor mount, you should be okay doing that. Its not going to fall off the mounts and go anywhere.

Good write up.
I just overpowered my clutch going up a hill the other day.
So it may be time for me to do this for my truck....
