[QUOTE=Chevy Fleetside;9137957]To get mine back in I had to remove the bolt from the left motor mount and lift the engine up just a bit for it to go back in. I probably pulled it as I was lifting the engine. You just have to remember to put it back in when reinstalling the engine. At least this was my experience with it.

Same here. The the ball broke off on mine so getting it out was no problem. (To my amazement the broken stub came right out of the block too.) But.... I had to lift that side of the engine to get it back.
