[Supras] Engine Pull Advice

I used the baggie technique (and took a lot of ribbing for it!), just
labeled, but number sequence would be a bonus.  No load leveler, and it was
fine.  Took the harness(es) off the ECU.  One thing that helped was to put
jack stands on all four corners as high as you can.  Then make sure you do a
couple dry lifts with the picker "up to the sky", to get any air out from
hydraulics.  You don't want to drop the engine on the front of the car b/c
of an air pocket.

And I took about a million pics during disassembly (I LOVE digital cameras
for this stuff).  Trust me, they really helped during reassembly.  I had a
document written by one of the guys on the list that really helped, but
can't find it right now.  I will look later and send it along if I can find
it again.

Good luck!

Experienced Ones,

Is it really easier to pull the engine with the tranny still attached?  I
just want to make sure before I find something out the hard way.  Any other
tips / advice for pulling the engine?
