I'm going to be test fitting the 3.6, so it will have to be lift in and out of the car multiple times. The bottom of the case is not really floor jack friendly, so I'm wondering if anyone has any great ideas for lifting these big MoFo motors safely and securely. I'm aiming to not be dependand on someone else to help steady the motor.

I know nothing of where you can or should lift the sixes from, but if you have a center beam in your shop you might be able to lift the engine up and down through the engine lid opening. Having it hang from chains would allow you to move it around more easily until you figure out where exactly it should go.
Just an untested idea. |
