> did tranny work on my 240 recently and i had the same problems…where the tranny just wouldnt budge in because it needed a slight bit more room and kept hitting the firewall…ended up taking off the nuts from the engine mounts so that way you can drop the engine a few inches and you have more room to work with…after that the tranny popped in fine.

That’s a bit excessive tilting the engine downwards gives you plenty of room to work with.
