I have done it both ways (MGA &amp; MGB). Generally, unless I need to have =
the<br>
transmission out, I&#39;ll take out just the engine. Two tips I can offer.<=
br>
<br>
1) Remove the crank pulley before pulling the engine (and replace it after<=
br>
re-installation). This can give you an extra inch of maneuvering room in<br=
the engine bay.<br>
<br>
B) Use a good clutch alignment tool or a spare first motion shaft (doesn&#3=
9;t<br>
everyone have a bin of spare first motion shafts?!?). And - most important,=
<br>
even when using a good alignment tool - you must not slide it in and let it=
<br>
hang. There is enough play in the assembly that the clutch will not be<br>
perfectly aligned unless you hold the tool perpendicular to the clutch.<br>

&gt; Obviously, both methods are possible; they have different advantages a=
nd<br>
&gt; problems.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; The workshop manual knows what it is talking about and lays out all th=
e<br>
&gt; steps. If you choose another method it is up to you to work out the or=
der<br>
&gt; of assembly issues.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Yes, if you pull both there are few extra items to remove, but not man=
y:<br>
&gt; shift lever, reverse switch wire, OD wires if present, crossmember &am=
p; trans<br>
&gt; mount bolts, speedo cable. You also need to raise the car enough for t=
he<br>
&gt; tailshaft to tilt in.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; If you pull just the engine, you have to do all the fiddly stuff (alig=
ning<br>
&gt; the clutch, undoing and refitting the engine-trans bolts) under the ca=
r<br>
&gt; with limited access, so you have to raise the car anyway.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Sometimes it works like a charm, but on occasion the clutch just won&#=
39;t<br>
&gt; align and you can spend hours mucking with it, squandering any time yo=
u<br>
&gt; ?saved?.<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; I just did an engine install with the transmission in place (not on an=
<br>
&gt; MG), and it took almost two hours to get the engine aligned to the tor=
que<br>
&gt; converter. We did it that way at the insistence of my buddy (it was hi=
s<br>
&gt; garage and his lift, although it was my car), but I really think we wo=
uld<br>
&gt; have been better off doing it my way, with both together. The reason I=
 went<br>
&gt; along was I was afraid his hoist couldn?t lift the combo high enough t=
o<br>
&gt; clear the nose of the car. That isn?t really a problem with the low sl=
ung<br>
&gt; MG.<br>

It?s always a good idea to replace the pilot bushing as well when you repla=
ce the clutch disc and pressure plate.=C2=A0 Remember to lube it, the bushi=
ng that is and the end of the input or first motion shaft. <br>
