Started into it. Rear diff and all that jazz is out. Motor/tranny will come out tomorrow when I have another set of hands helping me. Pics later on tonight, comparing driveshafts, rear diffs, etc. ---

Alright. Ran into a slight issue today, nothing big, just time consuming. That being said, the motor isn’t out, but, the final few things that needed to be taken care of - removing the slave cyl, front sway bar, draining fluids, disconnecting AC and PS, etc etc are all done. It’s on the engine lift, but not out of the car. It’ll for sure be out tomorrow though, as I’ll have all day to get that out, and start mounting the rear end, and a second set of hands will be here to help me wiggle the motor and tranny out. So, here’s some pics, and towards the end, some comparison pics of old vs new. ![[http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 001.jpg]([http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 001.jpg) ![[http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 002.jpg]([http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 002.jpg) ![[http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 003.jpg]([http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 003.jpg) ![[http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 004.jpg]([http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 004.jpg) ![[http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 005.jpg]([http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 005.jpg) ![[http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 006.jpg]([http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 006.jpg) ![[http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 007.jpg]([http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 007.jpg) ![[http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 008.jpg]([http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 008.jpg) ![[http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 009.jpg]([http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 009.jpg) ![[http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 010.jpg]([http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 010.jpg) ![[http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 011.jpg]([http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 011.jpg) ![[http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 012.jpg]([http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 012.jpg) ![[http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 013.jpg]([http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 013.jpg) ![[http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 014.jpg]([http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 014.jpg) ![[http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 015.jpg]([http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 015.jpg) ![[http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 016.jpg]([http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Miata) LS1 016.jpg) ---
