Leonard:

I forget which engine you have. IIRC, its the 5.7. I can look in my factory manual for you to see what it calls for.

My thought is that the radiator and core support come out along with hood removal.

I would think you could get it out then. Would take an awful tall lift to get it out though.

Thanks for the help i've bought a used motor and got it in last sunday it up and running. That's a tight area to work in. a/c all had to be removed and the cross member with the hood latch had to come off. All and all it went pretty good. Thanks to all that helped out.

P.s. The motor was build date was jan of 04. It broke the #5 rod under the wrist pin. I havn't got the heads off but all valves are still in place.

Thanks Leonard
