Finally getting around to a long drawn out project. I'm removing the BW35 from a 68 144. Replacing it with a M410 out of a 70 1800. I have the car jacked up and secure. I drained the BW35. Pulled the driveshaft and the linkages. Got the cross member bolts broken loose. I have some of the bell housing bolts out.

Looking for advise on how to proceed at this point. I was going to pull the fan off the engine and the radiator bolts to allow engine to tilt back a bit. Should I just take out the bell housing bolts or it appears I can get to a number of the BW35 bolts that attach it to the bell housing. I have the carpet off the tunnel and the plate removed on top. Is there a procedure for separating the transmission.

I have found out the driveshalf flange is smaller then the J output flange. I assume I need to try and find a smaller J flange if one exists and then maybe have the front part of the driveshaft shortened. I wanted to replace the rear engine seal of the B18 if a good idea while I have it down that far. Assume one has access to that once the tranny is out. I have a new clutch to install and have a 6 bolt flywheel for the B18 which I had surfaced by a machine shop.
