Andy,
You can get it out without bothering the reaction plate. Take the
cover off the bottom of the flywheel so it can drop down easier. You
will probably have to remove the crankshaft pulley so you can pull it
forward far enough to escape the reaction plate. I’ve done it twice
without bothering anything else however I have a 4.2L the 3.8L has a
larger diameter pulley/harmonic balancer.
pauls 67ots… also in CT.
I need to remove the oilpan on my E-type, but the torsion
bar mount seems to definitely be in the way. What are some
of the ways to remove the pan easily?
