Default Removing 2002 accord V6 engine (top or bottom)

I've pulled 3 honda engines all 4cyl and I have always pulled them out the top of the car. I want to know if I can pull this V6 out the top too? I really don't want to drop it through the bottom like the manual sez. So is it possible to pull this V6 through the top or not? Curious if anyone has done it before. The tranny will be attached.

thanks.

The bottom for sure. Drop the frame, engine and trans all in one shot......

I just don't think I will be able to get the car high enough in the air to do so. My jack stands only go up to 24" and i think I would need to have it up around almost 3 feet. So I'm going to give it a shot removing it from the top. I will let you know how it goes. Trying it this weekend.

Put in jack stands as high as you can drop craddle with jack and then jack up car higher with jack stands on one side slide craddle out. Or go buy some yard sale/cheap jack stands that are bigger.
