    can the engine be removed from underneath through the bottom chassis?

    In a word: NO. The front bulkhead of the rear boot is removable, so there is plenty of room to hoist the powertrain out of the top.

    Height clearance in post 50 of above link. Shorter lifting straps may be possible…

    You can also remove the wheels/tires and let it down on blocks. That can help with a short overhead.

    IF conditions exist - push the car out of the garage, lift out engine and push car back in!

    Remove as much of the engine ancillaries as you can, it will make removal easier.
