Did it on an FC. With the transmision attached to it also. Everything was still attached, minus the alternator. I don't know if it would make a difference between FC and FD, but yes, it's been done.



And the motor that I pulled out was in a totaled car, and the frame rails were crunched! The shock tower was up against the a/c p/s rack.
