I have the engine and tranny ready to back in the car.  Looks like the manual recommends installing the engine and tranny as separate units.  Should I
  • Install engine from above and then install tranny as a separate unit from below
  • Install engine and tranny as a unit from above
  • Drop the front subframe and lower the body onto the engine/tranny/subframe assembly
I have a gantry crane and 2 post lift so all are doable. I'd normally go the subframe route but don't really want to uninstall it and disconnect brake lines if it goes in easily from the top.
Also any insight into the best time to install the header and steering shaft would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Corey
