good info thanks

I agree with Chuck. I have the "load leveler" he shows in the link he provided and it works very well. If you haven't already done so, you should also scribe a line around the hood hinges before you loosen the bolts to remove the hood.

I've pulled the engine both with and without transmission. With the tranny attached you have to lift at an angle and then adjust to clear the radiator mount. Engine only more or less goes straight up and out. I'm assuming this is an automatic? I highly recommend one of those adjustable engine lifts. Since you have the heads off already you should be able to use 4 of the headbolts to bolt down your lift. Chuck
