    How to get the 7MGTE back in with a 2 ton engine hoist?

    I was just gunna say extend the boom... It helps alot! I have a 2 ton and mine is in the middle at 1 ton. I know the motor/trans isn't more than 2000 lbs... Lol it extends about 2 more frets on mine and that makes it easy enough to reach over and get it in without hitting the front bumper.

    How to get the 7MGTE back in with a 2 ton engine hoist?

    Ya deff have to go back n forth jacking the trans up and then lowering the motor little by little... I put the car really high on jack stands in the back n a little lower in the front so it kinda angles forward... Helps with how the trans/motor hangs.

    pockmarks in decked block?

    im pretty sure you cant balance it with the rotating assembly installed. idk for sure though, i was under the impression that they weigh each piston/rod and balance those, and then they balance the crank to match it. thats just what i was told when i took mine in.

    Easiest way to remove viton from MHG...?

    So I'm in the process of removing the viton from my MHG. What I did was soak it in acetone and scrub itwith some scotch-brite scrubbing pad. It works but it's taking for ever, and it's pretty tiring cause I'm just scrubbing really fast back n forth in a spot till it clean. So let me know if...
