anyone removed block with tranny still in car?
i am due up for a block swap before boost. has anyone ever removed a block without removing the tranny? would save alot of time and i would like to know if its possible or if it would be a waste of time. i would like to not have to remove axles, linkage and tranny mounts.
its a d16 in a 95 civic coupe.

Yeah. Back when I first started in the honda scene, I pulled my d16 out of my EF hatch and left the transaxle in. All you have to do is loosen the tranny mount bolts a little so you can pull the motor. IMO I have since pulled dozens of motors. Pulling the transaxle with the motor is my favorite, but that is because I also LOVE to clean the **** out both while they are out.

It makes it HELLA easy if you remove the alternator and crank pulley ( and AC if you have it ) and put all that stuff back on when you reinstall it.

how much will the tranny shift? i am concerned about the input shaft being too long before it comes out of the clutch
i have done many swaps as well, but i always pull it everything.

To tell you the truth I didn't loosen the tranny bolts until I was reinstalling it. But when you remove the crank pulley prior to removing it, you will have all the room you need.
