 My old tranny is out.  The tunnel is badly damaged, with golf ball size holes near where the seat supports are.  I am going to do a quick fix and have someone weld in a steel plate to cover the holes (new pans next year). 

Seems easy enough, but I am moving this weekend almost 110 miles into Illinois from Iowa. 

I am curious what suggestions everyone has for moving the car and engine without the tranny.  If I HAVE to install the tranny, then take it out again I can, but would much rather do it once. 

My Worries are that it is pushing the fan into the radiator and that the oil pan is sitting on the cross member.  I don't want either one to break or crack, but especially not the pan.

Thanks in advance.
