It's rusted, and has a thin place just above the exhaust manifold. I'm thinking of cutting it off at that point. Then put a bolt down inside the tub. Then put locking pliers ( Vice Grips ) on the outside of the tube. The bolt will stop the tub from being crushed flat. Then pull the tub out. Will that work on a 78 403 ? I've done this on Chevy V8's before. Bob Dunahugh
