Engine removal

Post by REN »

I am about to drop the 2ltr Aircooled motor out next weekend to sort out clutch judder, engine oil leak and leaking cylinder head (hissing noise).
How high must the back of the van be jacked up for the motor to clear and has anyone got any advise on what other stuff is worth changing whilst the engine is out (seals etc). Also is it ok to have the head skimmed if warped or am i better off getting a new one?

Just on basic car ramps should be high enough to slide the engine out
