Get your saw ready, because you are going to have to hack it out of there, then become creative on some brackets and other parts to mount it back in a bolt on application.

One big trick is to get a auto trans bolt up x member, then have it modded to bolt in.

You will need a cut off wheel, sawsall, and some hand tools to carefully cut the old one out without too much heat (fire hazzard).

Why do you want to do this?

I have had my share of clutch issues, and now can yank the trans out in less than an hour, with the bulk of the time jacking the car up in a safe manner.
