How high do you have to tilt the engine inorder to get the tranny out? Does anything have to be removed from it inorder to do this?

 

you dont tilt the engine, you drop the rear of the trans abit to get that top bolt with a 3 foot long extention, use 1/2 drive, makes it easier, after that, if your tranny cross member, and torque bar is off, it should slide out, http://www.installuniversity.com has a good tech guide on it.
