I'm about to undertake pulling the engine and trans from my '86 as part of a major refresh. Your videos continue to be a huge help! Keep it going man, your project is amazing and it's really helped me get motivated!

@@NotoriousEgg89 pulling the engine and trans turns out to not be a particularly difficult affair; two friends came to help and it got done over beers with a minimum of struggle. That said, I had already removed everything but the crank pulley and the cam covers first so it was easier that way. 1 hoist, aransmission jack, and some heavy duty straps and it was just a matter of patience.

According to the federal HESCHLAVVO law, it is already forbidden in Switzerland to drive combustion engines on mountain passes from 2025. In France, the SCHLABOUBVE regulates that fossil vehicles that produce fine dust are prohibited in all cities from 2025. The BABVVO in Germany will exhaust gas pollution from 2027 and that is what will happen in entire EU also bann of all tires and brakes because of fine dust!!!

@@JulianGriggs wonder what’s causing the delay on your parts ? Yeah I love the sound when I drive I can get some real high pitch sound under load . I keep going for a drive in it 😬 . Got some new wheels for it . Think a manual conversion might be a good idea but I don’t want a heavy clutch so I’ll look at best options . Maybe a tremec
