The worst case really isnt bad at all. An Sh.18 motor would be great. If this wont work then i'll get one. I have plenty of cash now.

TELL ME ABOUT IT!!!!!! Its hopeless. With the tools i have, its not possible to get it. How could it of gotten stuck in there like that if theres no threads to grab onto?? Could it of like melted inside and stuck to the motor cause this is kinda weird.

Im trading it in for SH. 18!!! Kinda mad in a way cause that motor is pretty fresh and had lots of life but im happy cause im excited about getting a better motor!!!

When i send the motor in, i take off the clutch, and clutchbell?? is that it or do i take the engine mounts off as well im not sure if it comes with the engine mounts for this car or not.

keep the engine mounts, clutch, clutch bell, fly wheel and spacer behind the flywheel and of course the exhaust manifold. keep all the parts to put the flywheel back on.

just a suggestion, get this manifold too, its much better than the stock one and its a great price, you should get some gaskets too:

and gasket

the pilot shaft is a nut that holds the fly wheel on, you will need to hold the piston in place to take it off. wrap some tape around the end of a flat screwdriver and stick it in the exhaust of the engine to hold the piston in place to take the nut off.
