How cam I attach my engine hoist to my engine with everything on?

When I pulled it I used the head bolts but now that the heads are on thats gonna be kinda tricky. What cant I use that wont harm the engine and wont break? Maybe the smog bolt holes in the back? What about the front of the engine?

I dont know. you might beable to use the plate that lolts to the lower intake.

We used the smog bolt hole in the back of the head from what I remember and a host bracket in the front. No problems. We did have the Valve covers off though.

There should be an engine hoist bracket on the front driver side, I think it attaches with the header bolts.

Get the intake lift plate. However, if you still have the bracket on the header use it. With the intake lift plate, you can install everything except the upper intake. If you have the adj fuel pressure reg you will have to lay the fuel rail to the side so that the lift plate won't damage the fuel regulator. This is what I did when I put my rebuilt motor back in the car. Peace.
