Thanks for the clarification, I need to get better with valuations!

The 55 Clipper is about 10 minutes away from me. If only I had the space!

Here is a 53 "cliper" 2 door that runs and drives.

This guy wants $9000 for a non-running 53? Am I correct in thinking that's crazy?

Looking at this again, I forgot about mounting it sideways. I'm guessing the best way is to mount it on the stand and then flip it over

Thanks for the suggestion, but I've already tried what seems like gallons of P/O and some Marvel Mystery oil with no luck. What is the best way to turn the engine over onto the top? I have it attached to the load leveler still but it is blocked on the ground.

Ok, thanks. Someone told me they made a special plate to mount it like that, can I bolt it on to the stand plate or would I have to make a special mount plate?

Yes I marked the position before I removed it. I'll have to see if I bagged the balance weights, I'm hoping I did. The problem is that I borrowed the engine lift from a friend and he needs it back... tomorrow. Would I be able to put the engine on the stand by the bell housing so I can get it back to him, and then do all of the work?

Hi. I have the converter removed and I am wondering how I'm supposed to remove the clutch looking plate and the flywheel. I see the bolts holding it to the flywheel, but since my engine is stuck I don't know how I'm supposed to get the top bolts.

Where can I find the engine number lookup?

Ok so thanks to everyone's help I have the transmission removed. I don't know much about Ultramatics, but does this look like it has been rebuilt/replaced or do these parts just stay well preserved? Thanks
