Although I posted this question before, I'll be pulling the engine in my '66 big block tomorrow and wanted to ask one more time if anyone has pulled the engine without removing the p.b booster. I hate to remove any lines and have to re-bleed the system. It looks really tight, I don't mind taking extra care and time if it can be done without removing it, but I don't know if it's physically possible. Thanks....

Re: '66 ENG REMOVAL/P.B. BOOSTER (AGAIN)
Rob,
I have without difficulty. I removed the engine (66 390hp )without the transmission.

Did you have to remove the L valve cover, or were you able to remove the engine with it on, as well as the booster in place? It looks like there;s almost no room to raise the engine without hitting the booster, before moving it forward to dissengage the transmission(4spd).Comment

Rob,
-------You dont have to disconnect the brake lines to disconnect the booster. Take the master loose from the booster and you can move it quite a bit without damaging the lines. Move it a bit to the side and then remove the booster. Should give you a bit more clearance. Hope this helps..........Bill SComment

Thanks, that sounds like a good compromise of giving me more room without having to bleed the system when I'm finished...Comment
