I like how the first picture has the licensed plate blacked out, but the rest don't. So lazy...

How are you going to pull the engine? Do you have a hoist, are your pulling it out from under the car, or are you using a 2x4 and a couple of guys? Have you converted your harness to OBD-1 yet? Lastly, are you going to get your engine certified or is that not necessary in New Jersey?

I'm jealous. I wish I had prospects of 60mpg...

EDIT: I see the story continues.

I didn't think about it until I hit that picture...

I'm going to drop the engine onto the skateboard, jack the car up like mad, and roll the engine out.

I've been obd1 for a while, cuz I wanted to play with chipped ecus.

Not necessary in jerz,

The way I'm planning on doing it introduces a little kink into the fuel line between the filter and rail, is this okay or should I go out and buy a new line?
