Without troubles, you're going to be a lot quicker than the last two motors.

I have seen these carbie pad lifting hooks advertised recently.
I thought that the weight of a Y-block would place a huge amount of strain on the carbie studs?

The lifting plate is safe to use.

Don't you just love that big lift, big compression sound. Remind me what the record is.
