Removing Motor


I removed the 1300cc motor from my 67 today, I for the life of me could not get it out without removing the muffler, I am sure it should come out with the muffler on.
It just kept fowling on the front of the engine bay, my question is should it need to come off?

Most of these litttle buggers have had a smack in the bum at some stage of their life and panelshop/repairers are not always to worried about original shapes,as long as the engine lid shuts it's OK.
