@cf6mech Will do! I am going to see if I can hold the engine from the top and drop the subframe. Take the oil pan off, check everything from underneath and modify the pan. Also going to ask a local shop about a tubular subframe to give me extra clearance all around.
You can hold the motor up and drop the subframe.. I did it to change out my cracked oil pan. Its a pain, because you have to take literally everything apart that ties into the subframe. ( I didn't, but it would have made the job easier if I had) But still better than pulling the motor.
