    I am not sure if your planning to do this yourself or pay to have it done .

    If yourself round up some help for the pulling and reinstalling while one person can get it done2 or 3 people that have a idea eliminates lots of frustration and crawling around.

    Budget for all new hoses belts etc

    Resurrection time. Hey I have a line on a fresh 78k 3.4 motor. The one owner mechanic totaled the truck and is parting out the engine. It's at a good price so I figured I'd grab it for a spare or maybe in the future find an inexpensive motorless child to raise. Anyways my question to TW is how long do you think I can keep the motor sitting in the corner of my garage without wreaking internal creep(damage) on it?
