    Default how engine crane attaches to motor

    As the title says, how does an engine crane attach to a motor to lift it out of the bay?

    Second question, where can i buy a pully to attach to the girders in my garage so I can winch the motor out. (the guy who lived here before did it this way to remove his truck engines so i know it can take the weight)

    usually engines have a couple of places to hoom a chain upto.vn v6's have one on the back of the driver side head and one on the front exhaust port on the other head. i usually use chain and D's
    the bloke might have used an endless chain
