Re: Believe it!

ok, i'll add another 30 minutes. Valve cover Gaskets. LOL.


It looks like we are gonna set up my Cougar and Kevin's SVT Focus side by side in his drive way and do them both.

You drop the whole engine/trans assembly out the bottom? or does the trans have room to come out by itself?
