[FC] Custom engine removal

[Merv Krull and or Loretta Prosser]

OK... let me get this straight... you want to basically cut the floor and 
frame around the engine bay and possibly graft it into another rampside? I 
suppose it is possible, but it will probably end up being just as much 
work... you will end up taking the whole thing apart anyway...????
my 2 cents
