Now that the engine and gearbox have been completely disconnected from the car, the engine hoist can be positioned and fastened to the engine appropriately.
I use the Oberg tilt-lift system furnished by Moss Motors (mossmotors.com). This apparatus allows you to easily adjust the angle of the engine and it is withdrawn or fitted to the car.
The Oberg is connected to the engine block as shown in the photos below.
The forward connection is provided by the manufacturer.
The rear connection is made with the most accessible manifold bolt. The Oberg lug is fitted as close to the block as possible.
Monday morning, the removal process will begin. I prefer to have three people involved in the process. One to operate the hoist, one for the Oberg and one to check for clearance issues.
My apologies for the lapse in progress and posts...
