Would it be possible to install a tubular K member with the motor in the car?

 

yes!, you just need a way to support the motor, i did mine like that, used a cherry picker

i imagine you could do it using a floor jack somehow too

once the motor is supported its a cake walk, well kinda lol nothing is a cake walk on these cars...

 

I don't think I'd try it with a floor jack. Cherry picker would be the best option.

 

I thought so, just wanted to know if someone already had. How long did it take you simple?

 

maybe 6hrs total doing it by myself, removal and installation and reassembling the brakes and all the front suspension etc.

 

I've never done it but I don't see any reason you shouldn't be able to just put a jack on the tranny.
