I am 17 and I just seized up my engine we just bout 1 from the wrecking yard today, it was a 91 V-6, but we got a 92 V-6 engine. I need to know if it is easier to pull the engine and transmission out all at once or just unbolt the engine and take it out

If it's an automatic, I think it's easier to leave the trans in. It saves the hassle of undoing the cooler lines and the attendant mess that makes. It's pretty easy to line back up.

Manual trans is easier to remove and replace both as a unit.

My opinion, of course.
