No reply, I think the thread is getting bumped off the page.

Anyway, the instructions show to mount the cooler in front of the radiator. I'll have to borrow a tubing flare kit, the one I ordered off feebay got cancelled; out of stock.
Today I picked up a new engine hoist, it makes my old one look like junk. Same rating but a higher lift.

After I assembled the hoist, I started unhooking stuff. Last serious maintenance on this motor was when I got the car, 50 thousand miles ago. The fan belt I put on is ready for replacement, and the timing belt I put on is a tad loose. Plus the front seal is shot- this engine is definitely showing its 80 thousand miles. Not bad for a Vega engine, really.

Today I got everything on the motor loose except mounts and exhaust. Should be short work tomorrow to get it out.
