Help!
Please don't tell me I have to remove the front end of my TR3 to
install the engine!
I got the car with the engine in the passenger compartment, so I don't
know how it came out. The car was painted and the owner gave up.
Maybe he realized the engine just WON'T go in!
The trouble I am having is the front of the motor will hit the apron
and the back hits the firewall. I just can't get enough room to get
the front of the motor under the apron and let the back down. I have
already installed the gearbox, so it is just the engine that has to go
in. None of the books say I need to remove the apron. Am I missing
something really obvious?
(It was 90+ degrees here today and the sun beats right into the garage
int he late afternoon...maybe I am suffering from heat stroke.)
Any comments or suggestions will be appreciated.
