In that case I would pull the engine. By the time you remove any z bar pieces in the way and fight the steering you will still have to fight the pistons from under the car risking damaging a journal. If you have the means I'd deff. pull it, roll in a new set of bearings and have the crank mic to see if it needs turned, look at an economy rebuild, cam lifters springs valve stem seals etc... Sounds like a lot of work but the pay off in security may save some big money down the road.
Just my 2 cents
Good Luck
Charlie
