AS YOU CAN SEE ITS NOT A MOTOR PULL BUT IS UNMOUNTED
AND FLOATED,

Now begs the question, which is less work. the above, or just pull the engine, and work sitting down. easy work and higher quality
may that depends on the person and his/her size.

In this case i suggest you few help links. Click the link below.

Hello,

An 'Afetta sud' doesn't exists... In teh old range you'll have the 'North' series ( with the 4-inline and V-6 engines ) guilietta, giulia, Junior, Alfetta, Alfa 75, Alfa 90, Alfa 6, ...
And the 'south' series with the boxer engine ( Alfa 33, Sprint, 145, 146, Arna, Alfasud, etc...

On an Alfetta, you have 2 screws at the rear-end of the torsion bars, very easy to adjust! Don't forget to drive a bit before measuring the height ( Or let wobble the car up and down by hand... )
