could care less for the car or the guy, but cool how he did it all in less than 5min, ehh?
Like the redneck engine hoist.

I'm sure if you fast forward anyone doing engine swaps, it can be done in 5 mins. Nothing special to the video imo.

With it being sped up so much, I doubt he's really setting any records in engine swap times. Perhaps faster than average, but I can't imagine his method being very good for the engine.

hahahha, i slowed it down and it comes out to about an hour and a half, thats a messy swap. I wouldnt trust that guy doing my swap, his engine hoist was funny, a 2 by 4, hahahhahahha.

I've lifted a transmission using his method, but I also lowered it using the same method in reverse (it took about 3 of us to keep it balanced on the jack). Never an unbolt and drop though :thumbsdow
