While fighting to replace the stock engine/trans in my SII yesterday, I had a thought. Is it easier to do it (stock or V6) from the bottom. A few month ago I helped a friend remove his TR8 engine, he'd made a stand for the crossmember and trans. Put them in place, unbolt crossmenber + trans and lift the car off the engine/trans.
Pictures in this post about GM V6 ( http://www.sunbeamalpine.org/forum/showpost.php?p=167061&postcount=34 ) suggested that the poster did it the same way. Has anyone done it with an Alpine, either stock or V6? Any opinions on 'easiness'?
