Default Tips for removing 305 motor from a 60-61 pickup
Hello folks,

I am ready to remove the 305 V6 from a 60 or 61 GMC 3/4 ton pickup. The motor mount bolts appear to be pretty straight forward, but when I am looking from inside the cab at the manual transmission, I see two upper bolts from the tranny to the clutch bell housing, but nothing visible on the lower section. I know this is a heavy motor, so I figured it would be easier to bolt the tranny for lifting it out. Any tips for making this task simpler, and safer, would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
