 You don't have to drop the subframe.? If you take out the 2 front subframe bolts, the oil pan will come out.

for 1300 fed notes I like the idea of swapping in a blasted rear end and
otherwise well maintained 160k mile AAN, theres really not that much to it
considering some of the swaps ive been swamped with.. I will have the chance
to take the time rebuilding my original engine, though i may swap some rs2
stuff in the meantime..
..yes you can re ring it while mounted so long as youre willing to drop the
sub so you can drop the oil pan,, i dont have a lift so i would much rather
remove/install a whole engine and have the opportunity to tidy up almost 15
years of grime.. Rit, if its really only one cylinder at the head the valve
cover is a quick off to at least check the lifter action,, id pray really
hard though first too :)  and as for v8 swaps.. well ive been loving my
ECU'less veggie car and am really excited about working with my friend on
his 90q getting a 5cyl turbodiesel. ,,mmmm, i can smell it already, yuk :]
..i like gasoline for my 5 cylinders, not much more, and have enjoyed the
last few months without it..
