Tips for pulling a small block mopar, I can usaully do it in 1 hour. Tip 1). You don't have to pull the hood off to pull the motor if ya remove the carb and keep the chain close to the intake. Tip 2). You don't have to pull the starter either if your only pulling the motor. Tip 3) If you pull the engine and change the pan gasket, be sure to throw in a new rear main seal.. these can be kind of common to leak. And if you pull the engine, I'd also tap in the front transmission seal behind the converter. Save ya from leav'n a few drips when ya park if both rear main seal and front tranny seal are new
