Re: IML: Rebuilding / reinstalling a 392 hemi into a 1958

["John Harvey" <50scars@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Since you have to ask the question, the proper thing for you to do is to 
remove the front sheetmetal--fenders, core support--everything in front of 
the firewall.  Remove the engine and transmission as a unit, and take it 
apart on the floor.  Reassemble it the same way.  There are people who can 
put it back together while lying on their back in the dark, at 2 in the 
morning, but that is really tough the first time you do it.  Things go so 
much easier and better if you don't have to drape your body over the fender, 
and stand on your head to work things into place.  Removing the front end 
sheetmetal saves wear and tear on the sheetmetal and your body.
