    I just started to tear down engine tonight! I've removed all brackets for a/c and alt. Also radiator, belts , pulleys and valve cover! I know the front chain is in good shape but secondary chain is what I belive is broke. So my question is pull engine or drop front end cause I need to do oil pan gasket and I guess I need to do valve job since I need to remove head also. How hard is it to pull engine alone and anyone got any tricks to make things a little easier!?
