    Odd request. Please help!

    I'm picking up my s52 tomorrow, and wanted to find someone who could give me a rough estimate on its size. You know, oil pan to intake manifold, and fan to flywheel. I just need to see if she'll fit in my 540 touring, or if I need to borrow a truck.

    TIA,

    AJ

    Every day I wake up we drink a lot of coffee and watch the CNN
    Every day I wake up to a bowl of clover honey and let the locusts fly in.
    Lobsterbacks attack the town again
    Wrap all my things in aluminum
    Beams of darkness streak across the sky
    Pink rays from the ancient satellite
    Every time I look out my window same three dogs looking back at me.
    Every time I open my windows cranes fly in to terrorize me.

      I don't have precise measurements, but in my mind I see the motor barely fitting but being nearly impossible to place in and out with any easy due to the bulkiness of the hoist.

      I'd use a truck since it's probably a car you care about not dinging up.

        dont put it in any car you care about the interior on. + you wont be able to have the engine on a hoist when you are trying to fit it in.



        Rent the truck, thank me later
        Much wow
        I hate 4 doors

          What everyone else said.

          Greg sold an M20 to a guy that showed up in a Ford SUV. Was a major pain in the ass to get that bitch in there. And it was only an m20.
          Need a part? PM me.
