Trying to install new pan and timing cover on 1969 pickup with 350 crate motor. I've got the pan loose but I'm having trouble getting the oil pan out from under the motor. I am not able to get it past the flywheel (which is exposed). Any tricks to this? I'm afraid that the tranny is the problem. I've tried jacking up areas but this didn't help. I didn't think this would be so difficult.
Also, I've got the front end down to the pully. Any tricks to getting this off easily?


I gave up golf for this!
