Subject: when removing engine ,remove with or with out 6 speed box ??
by c4-zo7-91 on 2008/9/22 9:21:54

hi guys in the next two months i say i will proberely be ready to remove the old 1991 vette engine and fit my new 388 c.i engine!!
the old engine that has the 8 t/b intake and haltech fitted has a left hand side head gasket problem at the moment.
its leaking coolent out spark plug hole when plug is out and also i noticed when i drained old engine oil out coolent was coming out of oil drain plug as well.
its stuffed.
for tempory use to fix head gasket problem, can i add " chemi weld" solution in coolent to help plug old head gasket to stop it leaking to see me thru the two months ??
im not sure if you sell this chemi weld solution liquid weld there in the usa ,but here i can buy the stuff from autobarn here.
they say to remove thermostat when adding chemi weld to coolent and fill up.
so here is another question guys,should i remove engine with 6 speed box all togeather or leave 6 speed in car ??
what problems or difficulties will i encounter ??
i know that i can leave the hood attached still while pulling motor out!
any tips/tricks would be much appreciated.
cheers
