Heh heh... Yeah, I swear as I started to pull on the engine to get it
onto the ramp just after that picture was taken that I thought "Oh
brother... I *know* what's about to happen here..." I was thinking
"Make sure your feet are out of the way so nothing gets broken that
you'll have to pay a doctor to fix." I'm gettin' too old for this
sh*t.

Re: Got a 360 for FREE today. :-)
lol
Sounds like my story, except my free 84 360 engine was used but in good
shape.
I went through mine to make sure all was in good shape before installing in
my 88 GW.
You will need an engine puller, HEAVY DUTY engine stand and the engine
lifting plate is nice to move it around. I put the 84 360 on a cheaper
engine stand rated for 1000 lbs and it started folding up. yikes.
You can see part of the Harbor Freight HD stand here:
http://ameritech.net/users/vwdoc2001...eftSide_01.JPG
Is your workbench about the same height as your tailgate or truck bed? Just
back that thing up!
Deflate tires or jack up vehicle to get them about the same height.
If all looks good after you remove the heads, I would say recondition those
360 heads and put it all back together.
good luck with it!
BTW I have some spare heads off the 88 360 I removed and maybe a couple off
a 79 360 too. ;-)
