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've used an engine lift many times used with a stabilizer and attaching the chains to front and back top of the engine. I have brackets basically a piece of flat bar steel with holes to attach the chains to. you can use the transmission bolt area and a case bolt by the oil pressure sender. It makes for a very easy lift and position into place because you can swing it and angle it around as you please.
