Mr. Voth, if you have a Jerico in that Monte Carlo, I hope you are aware of what "inferior" OE 4 speed trans it is based on. I also hope that you didn`t sully your car with one of those horrid Ford 9" rearends, either!

Rich, I have a two post lift at home, and it takes me about 45 minutes to drop it out, or lift the car off the engine and K member. With over 900 lbs open, I'm not strong enough to pull them down without a cheater on the Jessel tool. It won't fit under the cowel. By the time I was done, I was glad it doesn't have 9 cyls.
