The easiest way would probably be to remove the transmission and attack the problem from that direction since there are fewer things to disconnect than by removing the engine. To do it properly you will need a transmission jack which may be rented. I usually make do with a regular haul out the engine then you will need an engine hoist which is also a rentable item. If you would like more detail let me know and I'll post to you directly. One more item......make sure you have a torque wrench to properly install the new flywheel. If you want to go a step further you might replace the shaft seals on the transmission while it is out. These are cheap items to replace but difficult to get to when you need to so do it while you can!! Keith Bauer White Tiger Racing
