Hi, i am going to be replacing the engine in my 2008 HHR SS. I will be using an engine im going to order from ZZP. I don't have the money to pay a shop to do the work so i plan to do it myself. I have a lift and as i was a mechanic and crew chief on a CH46 for many years i have the ability. What i need is the knowhow. Can anyone recommend a manual or publication i can use to complete my swap? Im going to be dropping the engine and transmission rather then just pulling the engine alone. I would greatly appreciate any and all help. Thank you.

With Respect,
Young, G.W.

One of our members did it the hard way, he owns a lift now and won’t be doing this anytime soon, but he does have some pointers
