Why did I ask the question? To get some ideas because it's been years since I've pulled a TH350 trans. What I do remember is having to support the rear of the engine, and what I learned here is the exhaust pipes were probably not installed.
Non-issue? That's not the case as you can see from the responses in this thread. Also, Google this: "support for Chevy V-8 when removing transmission." There sure is a lot of discussion about this "non-issue."
