That’s it! Let the trans hang to get to the bolts. The things you only learn by having done it a bunch of times. Perfect. I was looking at that floorjack adapter especially for reinstall. Probably will fight the headers and not cut the trans. Really appreciate the quick responses from everyone. Thankyou

Any other pointers? I have pulled many TH 350’s and just huffed them down laying under the car but that was literally 42 years ago. The car is up on stands and the plan is to lower the 400 with a floor Jack. It shifts nice no issues but has a leak from what looks like the front pump seal. I’m just looking at cleaning it up and resealing. Any advice would be appreciated.

Has anyone pulled a turbo 400 without pulling the motor. 402 with headers. Those upper casing bolts seem impossible to get at.
