We pulled the 235 and 4-speed tranny as one unit last Fall. The radiator cross frame had been cut by a previous owner but we still had to tilt it a lot. The tranny was difficult to get past the firewall.

How hard is it to install the tranny after the new engine is bolted down? I know the 4-speed is really heavy but is it still easier? Thanks.
