Re: 3.5l Engine Replacement Advice
krivasauto--
Based on the 1999 Shop manual the procedure is to drop it out the bottom with the engine tranny attached to the subframe. This may just be the standard GM answer, as I haven't read anything about anyone with first hand experience pulling this engine.
It's a 50 step procedure for removal, and I was a bit supprised that the procedure included the removal of the starter and alternator before the subframe is lowered.
Keep us informed as to how it goes. There's a few people on this forum with questionable rear headgaskets, who are considering headgaskets or potentially engine replacement if they keep the Intrigue..
