Thought that I might document my 440 build. Took a different tack to start.
1. Removed the front clip
2. Tore down most of the engine as it sat in the stub frame (this was nice, as I could stand inside the frame and work. It provided a nice heavy base to really put some muscle to some of the bolts).
3. I built an inside beam hoist years ago to help remove inboard engines from boats, as a cherry picker was not long or tall enough. So, I rolled the front clip under, lifted the engine out, and then rolled the clip back. Pretty easy.
4. Trans is off to the rebuilder
5. Engine will go next, to what I have to work with.
