Engine swap

Uh... The escort should not be allowed.

While very nice team work by the Brits, quite a few steps "left out".

I am curious of how they did get the front halfshafts out of trans.

After thinking about it, the car has to run a grand total of 7 seconds on camera... so no coolant, PS, trans cooler or AC lines. Probably only starter solenoid wiring and a quick disconnect for fuel (one way). I would imagine that there are something along the lines of hood pins thru the motor mount bolts (no nuts) to keep it tied down, and probably something very similar at the CV joint, so the guy underneath pulls the pins, calls ready, they pull and swap, the majority of the time is simply lining the motor mounts and half shafts into position then pinning them.

I'd say this is the faster way to pull a motor
