I was trying to break my stock motor down as FAR as possible so I could lug it around and get rid of it... well, I had to go buy a 10mm allen wrench socket... tried a break-over bar... NO WAY... I went ahead and TRIED my impact wrench... OMG! How freakin tight are these things?! Geesh! The dang impact wouldn't even budge them! Perhaps I need to resort to something bigger... BUT WHAT?! Anyone ever have one of these motors apart?

BTW, leaving at 9am tomorrow for sure this time... going to Pontiac Illinoise to pick up my LS1 and 4L60E trans... gonna end up spending around 13-14 hours on the road tomorrow... talk about a LONG drive and a LONG day!

I'll report back once I get the motor in hand... or back home anyway.

TTYL!
