Is it possible to remove gearbox (alfa 3ltr 12v in a hawk) without having to take engine out?
I don't have a Hawk kit, but I have removed one from an Alfa 164, so I would imaging that it would be easier to remove it in a Hawk.
Cant speak for a Hawk, but its not possible in a corse:(
I've managed it with a Beta.
Putting it back was more difficult.
I made some guide studs out of some monkey metal conversion wheel studs, to line the bell housing up.
I think John Rutter has done it.
YES .......done twice
That's what i wanted to here :)Quote:

When you are doing it on your own juggling the box, a trolley jack and bits of wood it makes it much easier. Carpet upside down on the chassis is good for protection too
