Default Tips/Suggestions for Engine Install?
I am going to put the engine and transmission in this afternoon. I am going to attempt to install the engine from the passenger side with my standard engine hoist with extendable boom. Fully extended it will handle 1,000 pounds, or at least that is how it is marked. I think with the aluminum Shelby engine and tko trans, i am still well under a thousand pounds.
Anyway, any tips for where to put the jacks stands in order to avoid the engine hoists legs? Other tips?
