I owned my 96 mustang gt for a few years now and it's time to remove the engine to take care of my cars cancer rust! I need room to get to the strut tower/frame rail to repair the rust and need room. This will be my first time removing the engine from my mustang and I am wondering what is the easiest way to remove the engine? Should I take the transmission with it? Any information on this would help alot, I plan on yanking the engine this weekend.

 

I would leave the trans in. All of the plugs only plug in one way so its hard to get them mixed up. Remove the intake so it will be easier to get to the trans bolts. Is this an auto trans or a manual?

 

it is an auto
