I'm not sure about this, but I'd think that on your '70 you could support under 
the transmission and release the shift rod coupling, then just pry the engine 
and transmission far enough to the rear to get clearance. You might get a 
little extra room by loosening the 4 bolts that hold the upper ends of the rear 
mount supports. If you do this, mark their positions before you start, so you 
can put them back where they belong when you're done.
