Trying to put in new motor in this turd cyrcle.
Tranny is a 5 speed that is in there already
along with the long tubes.
Should I
A: remove them and bolt them on the motor so I can drop it all in a unit.
B: Just the remove the bellhousing and long tubes.
or
C: leave it all there and drop the motor in with the stuff out of the way.
I'm trying to avoid the headache long tubes cause. ie starter and actually bolting them on also with the tranny and being able to reach the bolts.
Any ideas suggestions?

I'd leave the longtubes in but drop the tranny out and attach the tranny to the engine. Usually goes in easier for me that way.

Well said fuck it and did C.
Now if I could get the blower pulley I need and some minor stuff here and there and we'd be in business with project vortech'd 331 x chp.

Interesting, I run 8 rib with a fluidyne, it all fits.
Get a cheap electric fan and be done with it.
