I am basicly ready to pull the engine all wires lines hosees are all undone. My question is. Should i have less slack on the timming belt side then the trans side to kinda tip it up to get it out. Is there any other way. I am pulling transwith it, Thanks

Well depending on what have taken off your block well give a better response but I can tell you what I did... I had two other people with me... I took out radiator for extra room. (It takes like 2min and helps a lot.) I left my intake manifold on. (I regret this) I would suggest taking that off if you haven’t. Hook up lift WITHOUT slack on either side... Have one person help hold the engine towards the front so it clears the back firewall... Next have third person push down on the transmission while you jack up the lift... This well able it to kind of lift on an angle so it can clear the Trans. Putting slack on it is not the best way... since when you do unbolt the block from motor mounts. It well kind of give some because of slack and still be a pain to get out... SO just get people to help maneuver.

I have the head off. I will take the raditor out. Thanks

Here ya go: The motor needs to face like this to clear:

Start with the timing belt side motor mount, then the back one, then the tranny one. Have one person rotate the motor/trans to face like the pic. Guide the motor out while its being lifted.

The battery tray will be a pain. The axles could be as well. Drop the cross member once you have the engine supported. Pulling the engine with the head off could be a pain, the lift points for the motor are on the head. Do get the intake and exhaust manifolds out of the way.
