I have a question I am replacing the motor with another 3.8, somebody told me that you had to pull the motor out of the bottom instead of the top. I was just wondering on how hard it would be to do it either way. Thanks for you help.

 

with basic tools and no lift i prefer to go out the top, leaving the trans in the car.....if you have never pulled the motor from a 3800 car before, it'll take a while...they really arent that bad to work on, just gotta learn all the tricks there is a bolt that goes from the engine into the trans (backwards from the rest) on the back of the engine..."backwards bolt" or "bitch bolt" as many call it....

 

Only done mine out the top- engine and trans together (was swapping them both)- and it was simple as pie.
