We finally had a day of nice weather here in Michigan so I was able to get the motor and transmission installed into the truck with no trouble at all. I am glad that I removed the front end and radiator support because I am convinced that there is no way that I would have gotten the engine And trans in there from the top without damaging the truck and the motor.
I had to get some assistance from my floor jack to lift the front of the engine up in order for the stock 5.3 oil pan to clear over the OBS engine crossmember, but once the oil pan was past the crossmember, the engine and transmission practically fell right into place.
I still need to replace the rubber transmission mount before I really lock everything down but we will go over that in the next one.
