what floor jack and engine lift plate should I get? Options

[scott_in_nh]

I'm trying to get everything together that I will need to finally drop the motor so I won't have any excuses left to keep kicking the can....
I need a new floor jack anyway, and I want to buy the Tangerine lifting plate.
Any advantages/disadvantages of using the post model vs the Allen screw model?
What size and type of jack? limited use so Harbor Freight models or similar are fine.
What is the best height for dropping the motor? The car will be level unless there is a reason for it not to be.
Thanks

Tallest Daytona jack you can get and the tangerine lift plate.

Don’t cheap out on the Jack. A good Jack makes a huge difference. I’ve done drops on everything from an el cheap K-mart two ton which was tippy and too short to a good Daytona (the snap-on knockoff). The stability of the jack makes a world of difference.

And make sure you have jackstands too. Never get under a car without jackstands.

Thanks, is that the tube type or bolt type?
