Humorous title aside, I have a serious question. I just pulled the head
off the 73 Midget and when I did, four of the pushrods stayed in the
block and the rest came out with the head. Is this a bad thing? should
all the pushrods be able to slide out of the block?
The reason I removed the head is because I am trying to strip down the
engine to make it light as possible before lifting it out, by hand. How
heavy is a short block? and can I remove the engine without removing the
tranny mounts?

baby bumblebee reference....:-)
