...pull the motor out of the new GN< and clean/detail the front..
... pulling off the front clip and all.


About the same amount of work, no? (no idea , last clip I pulled was a '72)

Very Pretty TB3.

The more I look at it, the more a complete engine removal may be needed for the GN. :(

holy  sch-moly!  I'm actually doin some work on this thing today   :rock:  


supersix,   pulling the front clip is very very easy.  if the engine hoses/wires, etc that connect to fender wells and front are disconnected.. ...  its just 2 or 3 (cant remember) bolts in the door jam, and one on top on each side (keep track of shims).  then unbolt the hoodlatch and driver side of firewall fusebox, then the front two body bolts and the whole thing lifts off in one piece.    easy stuff :rock:
