if ya taken motor outa the wrecked car yes you can take it out in one piece by making it easier & removing the radiator support brackets AND putting something in the back of the gearbox so ya dont drop fluid every where

usually people use a damn long extension... from the rear of the gearbox and angle it upwards

but why not just pull the box out with the engine its much easier
considering you are doing an engine swap

pull the rad out, and the bonnet off should give you heaps of room!

just throw a couple of lower bolts on so when you get them out the box doesn't come down ontop of you
