Re: Lt 1 Motor Lift Plate
I used a home made setup. A square piece of stock about 1" by 1" and wider than the engine, crosswise. 4 chains attached to the ends and I bolted the chains to the 4 corner exhaust header holes. I use this same setup on any engine with a real tall t-ram style intake. I attached it as tight to my engine hoist as I could get it and also added an extension to my hoist. Had to add weight to the back of the hoist to act as a counterweight. The holes in the intake for the fuel rails are very small.....The plate would be easier but I used what I had and it worked fine. I removed all the stuff on the front of the engine.....water pump - housing, dist. cap and balancer.
