The simplest way to take a honda motor out.

ive seen a thread here a while back where a guy used a homemade engine holder, basically what he did was had like 4 two buy fours put together put some wheels on it, dropped the motor on it and jacked up the car and removed it on the wheels yes its possible

W O T

yes u can.

you need to either keep it as a whole and get it real real high and drop it out the bottom *trick* get front end 13" off of ground, remove front bumper to save it from damage

OR

remove it in pieces, take off the head, tranny and drop the block throuhg the bottom, car only has to be raised normal height to do it this way but it takes a while and you have to put it back together

I can help you with anything or more questions you have, email sohccrx@gmail.com for quick responses, im in toronto

good luck

Try using two jack stands or floor jacks to lift right under side of car behind front tires to get it even higher. But yes it can come out the bottom. If you twist it right though, and if you have an engine hoist, you can pull it out the top too. Good luck
