Hi Everyone,
Thought I would give an update. My son and I blocked the back of the engine up, removed air tube all bolts, linkages and ujoint at rear diff , unbolted rear crossmember and mount and took out. With a small strap bolted to bellhousing to hold the convertor, we was able to slid it straight back and level (about 3") just enough to get up in there and swap the flexplates. I will keep you updated on the install of the trans but so far so good. Thanks everyone for your help and KULTUZ for the copies of the manual and help. Steve
