Posted November 24, 201212 yr comment_407586 Finally starting the LS1 swap guys. I'm removing the triple webers and engine and will be getting rid of those to help fund the rest of the project. You have to appreciate how easy it is to drop one of these engines compared to a newer car. The car and engine I am starting with has about 90k on it, so I'm a little sad to be pulling it apart, but I plan to completely refinish the whole thing, so I'm dropping the whole drivetrain and getting it up an a rotisserie to start body work. Wish me luck. Phase 1: Remove triple Webers and intake. DONE Phase 2: Remove exhaust. DONE Phase 3: Remove transmission Phase 4: Remove engine (lift point suggestions, anyone?) Phase 5: Remove diff Have pics below so you guys can see the progress. BTW, if anyone wants this stuff... Ha!

April 8, 201311 yr comment_419880 Look at page ER-3 in the 74 FSM and ER-4 in the 75 FSM, that gives you a general idea. The problem with following the FSMs is that most cars have the engine slingers removed. They were located on the front passenger side and rear driver side. IIRC, there is a threaded hole in the head for the front one, and the rear one was on the back stud for the exhaust manifold.
