But I did remove and install the trans in the Chevelle in my garage. My brother just rebuilt it at his shop.

Sean, if your x-pipe is like mine you can remove and install the new one by just lifting the front of the car. I didn't even need to lift the back to be able to do it.
Ron,

That is pretty much how my dad and I swapped out his tranny in the 72 Mach. Put the rear up on jack stands and put the front of the car on ramps and blocks and gave us enough room to get the trans out. If we can get anywhere near that kind of lift on Sean's car we should have plenty of room.
