After reviewing the engine removal threads I still have a couple questions.

Ok, its been 35 years since I had that 4 speed off, but I can do that. Separate them while on the cherry picker before putting the engine on a stand?

What to disconnect the clutch linkage? Just the torque rod to clutch fork, or does the torque shaft have to come off?

I always take off z bar and all. Linkages, shifter and all. That way there's no chance of damaging anything.
