In my personal opinion and countless engine transplants, I would pull the engine and trans out together. Its a pain to try and line those dowels up when you are setting an engine in. If its a 5 speed its twice as bad to get the splines lined up on top of trying to get the dowels lined up. Much easier when it is out of the car. Hope my .02 helps
