That's pretty cool, shows how quick you can do shit if you got the right tools ready to go.

Did you just lower the hoist over the engine/k frame? Thats awesome LOL
They arent they factory extractors either are they?

Pete, if you had just bought an F6 and were looking around for a dealer to get it serviced at, would you take it to where you work?

Its way easier to pull it out from the top, but as CMYWPN said the shithouse design of the herrod headers make it impossible to pull the engine out through the top without removing them, which involves dropping the engine anyway, but yeah fun as job to do done a few at my work aswell, you dont realise how big the boss engines are until they are out of the car. So CMYWPN what Ford dealership do you work at?

ps, i liked removing the engine from the bottom. Like i said, it only took me 2 and a half hours to get it on the ground. Last time i lifted it up through the bay and it was a bit of mucking around. But then again when we lifted it we didnt have to disconnect the A/C or the power steering lines, but going through the bottom, i had to regas the A/C and top up power steering.


shit, didnt even know that costanzo changed its name, how long ago did that happen, and me I work at New Oak Ford in Oakleigh

CMYWPN had a falling out with the forum. Not sure if he has manually deleted all his posts, or if mods did it themselves.
