6th Gen ('00-'05): Dropping in New 3.8 liter motor
The engine will come out the top without any issues. You don't need to pull the hood , just remove shocks from hood and put a stick in place to hold hood up straight. Also put a jack under the transmission pan to support it when the motor is removed. Good luck
Agreed, the engine should come straight out no issues. Even the engine + trans will come out the top together if you tilt it.
As far as getting them mated, is your trans in or out of the car? I like it out better so it's easier to maneuver then I just bolt the converter on via the inspection cover hole after I've dropped it in.
