I'm thinking if I move the tran back a few inches (disconnect the driveshaf=
t and tran mount),  then we can slide the tran back into the engine.

Does this make sense or am I missing something?

I'm thinking we will install the carbs and exhaust manifold after engine is=
 in place.

I'm bringing you the alternator, coil, dizzy, engine mounts, fan belt, ??

I'm thinking I should add the fan after the engine is in.  it's brand new; =
don't want to damage it.
