Wow, now that was fun. I found that it was easier to reach anything on top by removing the intake manifold and dizzy. Even when everything was disconnected the Blazer did not want to give up the engine. Nice fitment of the oilpan and the front differential. I think I'll take the intake off the replacement engine since I'll be replacing the gasket anyhow. Can't wait to get this thing back in, promises to be fun.

Thank for the suggestions and help.
