Can you hoist the engine out of an '00 Eclipse...or does it have to be dropped through.

Any tips/pointers for me, I'm hoping to start swapping out my engine this weekend.

you can hoist it out if you have too... easiest way would be to take the whole front end of the car off, bumper, radiator, lights, brackets...blah blah blah....did that the other day, motor just pulled str8 out the front.. :beer:
