After 16 years of a daily driver... from Illinois to Texas to Ohio my son brought the car back for some much needed tlc. Started with rebuilding everything in the front of the car I’m moving to the back.

It can be done either way with the stick, but we prefer to mount engine and transmission together then mount the powertrain to the cradle as an assembly. Nice metal work.
