Now i'm looking to forge the internals. Question on pulling the motor. Will the motor and tranny come out from the top? Any suggestions when pulling them out?

IMO it's easier to pull the radiator and wrap a chain around the core support and lift the car with the engine hoist and drop the entire k-member on a wheel dolly. Just did 2 cars a few weeks ago like that. You can just roll the engine out from under the car with the wheel dolly and call it a day. It will make it easier to clean up the engine bay while you're at it.
i got a 99 i also blew it up me and my friend got the motor out in one night, well it would of been one night if i wasant missing a tool, im getting mine built atm, all forged internals, cams, stainless steele valves, port polish, and valve job, im throwing about 9,000 dollers in the car right now, its very esy pulling it from the top
