Engine is ready to come off the stand. But, um, what is best way to do so.
I originally had it (engine) sitting on Harbor Freight Lift Table. Raised it up to height of engine stand and pushed it on. Am thinking same approach to remove it. I do not have an engine hoist. For mating the tranny should I just leave the engine on the lift table or place it on the floor? I did pick up the engine / transmission lifting plate from Tangerine Racing. I *think* that is designed to lift the engine only after it is attached to tranny and should not be used just engine alone? Is that correct? Not sure best way to get the plate and the jack under the assembled trans / engine. Just get a few big folks to help lift it? I will have to do some additional manuevering due to my four post lift. Some of you may recall when I removed engine that the tins and engine brace are wider than the lift runners. |
