Interested in this. I fear for mine since the only one I've done is one a boat and an 80s Chevy pu.
Interested in what methods. I've heard of pulling the entire front (grille surround, rad, core support) and lifting the motor/trans as an assembly straight forward

We're probably pulling the whole front clip and if possible the trans too,I'd like to lower the new trans and motor in as one piece.

Why did it bust? If that's all it is, shouldn't be that bad. I got a hold this boy who's a *** certified mechanic, works at a shop to fix my daughters car. The kids in love with her so that should offset the price. Now I have to get my kid to be nice to him...for a little bit anyway.

Should flow good.

3/8 vs a -8an/.5 inch.
3/8 lines from each pump to a -8an bulkhead out of the hat. Return will be 3/8
