Help with 325ix 5-speed swap?

[applecran]

Thanks Pat. Appreciate that. I'll go pick that up.

Weeman, should be fine. I'm thinking we'll start about 930 saturday, probably about the same Sunday if needed.

I'll send you all my address when I get back from LA (at a conference for work).

Sorry man, wish you were going to be there though.

This must be done by Sunday because we have a meet.

So like.....2 guys pull the motor, 2 guys drop the exhaust / prop shaft, 2 guys work inside the car with the pedal box?

Shottie not pedal box.

Hey guys I was hoping to tag along to do photo documenting but I'm busy all weekend. Could someone please take pics so maybe we could do a post with a step by step write -up? For all those future swappers!

Thanks

I'd like to help out - especialy if others can't make it, or can only be there for part of the time.

You want 2 guys inside working on the pedals? There isn't that much room in there, are you expecting the Keebler elves to stop by and help?

A weekend trans. swap sounds awesome. I'd like to see a write up with pics of this!

Hey guys

just a though. You may want to bring a ratchet or two of your own, i only have a few. Extensions are always good as well.

I'll have drinks, beer, and will get pizza for lunch/dinner.

crossing my fingers that i have all the parts. Parkshore is open as is lordco just in case, both quite close.

Im donating the case of beer as Adam and I always help each other except this time....I only have 2 days here before going to Alberta for a 24 day shift so I cant help except as a parts runner and beer delivery dude...
