Thanks for all of the advice.. I bought a Chilton book covering my car that explains how to drop the transmission out of the bottom, that seems simpler than disconnecting the whole engine, although I'm supposed to use a hoist to support the engine, disconnecting it is optional I think. I won't replace the clutch because it doesn't have one. Probably will be an all day job anyway, I have my older brothers and father to help me though. 95, I like your 88 EX, btw.
