Rich, I have a two post lift at home, and it takes me about 45 minutes to drop it out, or lift the car off the engine and K member. With over 900 lbs open, I'm not strong enough to pull them down without a cheater on the Jessel tool. It won't fit under the cowel. By the time I was done, I was glad it doesn't have 9 cyls.
