looks cool...
dumb question, will stock hard or soft top still fit?

My bikini top and half top will fit with some tweaks. I'm not too concerned.

Thanks Dennis, she's coming along.

I broke the crankshaft bearing cap installed the auto tranny. Reinstalled another bearing cap but I didnt trust it. So a weekend and a cheap 4.0 and were all set.

The only thing that separates a night change and a day change is proper lighting.  Ziplock bags, magnetic trays, and 3 SKILLED set of hands with some good lighting and you can be in and out in 3-4 hours.

Yeah, but if the engine blows we won't have to work on it and can have a party... Just sayin. There are other options to an engine swap at night in a field.
