With the hood removed, the engine is easily inserted into the truck when hung from an engine hoist with a tilting engine bracket. Recruiting a friend or two to keep an eye on all the accessories, wires, and hoses that can get caught and torn doesn't hurt either. Once the engine is sitting in the motor mounts and lined up with the transmission indexed onto the clutch, or in our case the torque converter, it is time to start hooking everything up.
