Hey Everyone,
I am looking for your thoughts and pics of course re Engine Cradles you have assembled. I am finishing off the wiring for my car and will assemble the Webers as well and likely do a few other things while it is out. This will likely be a month or two of work and I want to locate my engine on a safe and stable cradle that I can then lift the engine from and reinstall. I don't think I have seen a thread re cradles so this should be interesting. As always, thanks for your thoughts and ingenuity. Grant |

Thanks Guys,
My plan is to use the cradle as a stable platform assemble the curbs and generally store the engine until I am finished with the wiring and other work in the engine bay. I have used my trolley jack to lower it down out of the car in the past and that works with little trouble. Thanks for the follow up and pics. I will post as I get into it. Grant |
