D15Z1 Engine swap project log

[Gary Palmer]

Matt: Just a note and a question. I've pulled and installed several Honda engine's with just my 2 1/2 ton floor jack. I've uses an engine hoist previously and from my standpoint, in terms of space and ease, I was able to do it without the hoist, almost as easy as with. However, if you have room and your going to use a hoist, I would suggest a purchase over renting. Every time I have rented I end up having issues where something doesn't go right and I end up paying more for the rental and I still don't have anything when I'm done.

On a different note, I can't figure out how to change my user name to something more "meaningful" instead of pseudo-random, like I have it now. I'm sure their is a way, just don't know what it is.

Thanks, Gary, a "lurker"?
