in a 9-5 it can come out of the top, but you have to tip the engine way way up to get it to clear everything. if you have someone to help you it isn't too difficult.

Fastest way is out the bottom installed on the sub-frame with the trans hooked up. I can get one out in about 2 hours on my lift. If you are swapping from a parts car you can do the same and move the whole assembly over. I made a 2x4 cart with wheels for pushing the sub-frame (with engine on it) around. we once swapped a car and didn't even drain the fluids!

I saw at a junkyard that someone dropped the entire front subframe with the engine still attached and then removed the motor from the front subframe.
![]() The most impressive thing is that it looks like they didnt use a hoist and instead tied a seatbelt around the mounts and used them to slowly lower the whole assembly to the ground. Most impressive. |

fastest way really depends on your ability/facility and if it can move 800lbs of subframe and powertrain as a unit. if you can drop it all together, if you cant pull subframe, pull trans, then drop motor. the only reason to split them up is to reduce weight/size so they are easier to handle
