Removing the 350 engine from my 72

[brown7373]

I am close to pulling the 350 from my 72, and am confused at the steps as listed in the Service Manual. On page 6-27, step 10 it says for CE10-30 for vehicles with auto transmission to remove rear mount crossmember, raise engine and transmission assembly and pull forward until removed.

Do I have to pull the transmission attached to the engine? I've done Pontiac 400s and 455s and you just unbolt the torque convertor/flexplate and remove the bolts holding the transmission to the engine and pull the engine, and just support the transmission..

Can I do the same with this?
