I got the engine back in today. No exciting pictures to post this time. Removing the engine mounts and letting it rest on the frame made a huge difference in accessing all 8 bell housing bolts. I guess these are the tricks you sometimes learn the hard way. Also having the intake off made things a lot easier. (Thanks Chris.) Looking at it now, it's pretty obvious to remove the intake before removing the bell housing bolts. I don't know why that didn't occur to me when I first was pulling the engine out.
Next weekend I will be able to pull everything back together, assuming the weather holds out. I'm getting closer to turning that key for the first time in months.
