Last engine swap I did I had access to a lift which made it easy. This next time I’m going to be “stuck “using jackstands to get the car in the air, and I’m wondering if this would be a good way of raising the engine/transmission to be mounted?
Assume the car should be as high up as safe and level? Thanks and hope it was a good long weekend.  |
