Thanks Doc.
The very back stud was snapped off before I got the car. This might explain the exhaust leak.
Got the engine pulled on Tues. Took about 45 min. but I already had every thing removed excpet for tranny and motor mounts.
Piece of pie, easy as cake. I was concerned about the ballance of the engine, but that was no problem. I did have to adujst where I connected the puller onto the chain bolted to the engine once.
