So, I am at the point where unfortunately I need to replace my flexplate. I have a Meziere sitting here waiting to go in, but I am loathing the idea of doing the job. I finally set the car up the way I wanted last fall, parked it, now this needs to be done.
Now, I am trying to figure out if I can tackle the job here in the garage with jacks and my engine support bar. I could do it at work, but if anything goes sideways and the car is stuck, I will be in serious trouble.
Curious to know if anyone has done a swap by just pulling the axle, unbolting the transmission and sliding it over as far as it'll go. I don't remember last time we did a converter if there was enough room or not. Looking for headsup if anyone knows, so I can decide where I'll tackle this project.
By the time I remove the turbo pipes and all the misc. gear, it's going to be a hell of a job. Can't wait to line up all the pipes again to avoid rubbing.... Blah.
