[Tigers] Dropping the engine

[genepadgett at comcast.net]

Jeff, Owain has already posted an excellent list.B B  Although you mention you
are all done with the engine compartment, I just wanted to remind you about
the oil pressure line that runs from the front of the block driver's side to
your gauge in the dash.B B  Sometimes easily overlooked.



Also, I understand some people say remove the oil dipstick and tube for
additional working clearance on the passenger side and disconnect the steering
column on the driver's side from its mount and wire tie it to the side for
much the same reason.



Best regards,B  Gene

Subject: [Tigers] Dropping the engine

I decided to take the engine out from the bottom. I made a very nice low and
long dolly. I took out the radiator, carb and I think I'm all done in the
engine compartment. Pulled off the front wheels and crossmember (which I have
to do anyway, since I don't like the look of the LAT mags the car had.)

Now, can folks help me with a list of what to disconnect underneath and on the
transmission end? Fluids are out, too.

What is the support brace called that is just in front of the X frame?

Thanks,
Jeff Holt
