Re: project 12s buick (engine tear down)

Ahhh found my pictures of the 98 PA I did a motor swap on and it brought back memories as to why I hated it. The balancer needed to come off to get the motor out, besides fighting that damn mount.

Re: project 12s buick (engine tear down)

When you do all the work, leave the balancer off the motor, until it's installed.
