I am getting closer to doing my swap from auto to T-10 in my '64 Commander. I need to install different length crank flange bolts for the flywheel... which leads to my question for you:
Is it better to simply pull the engine to remove the pan and back bearing cap to get at the crankshaft bolts or is it possible to leave the engine in the car and drop the pan?
Leaving it in the car seems like it could be a much bigger pain than just biting the bullet and pulling the darned thing.
Your thoughts and experiences please.

Ps...I have the original 55,000 mile 259 available if anyone is interested. (needs a rebuild)
