Hi,

I've been looking over and over and asking on many threads but no one seemed to have the answer.
As the title says, I need to know the exact locations where I can hook the engine to a chain and lift it with a hoist/crane. I need to do an engine swap and I really need this info. I heard that you had to screw two bolts somewhere, one near the timing belt, behind the engine, on the cylinder head and the other is somewhere between the engine and the transmission. Mine's a manual so maybe it differs from an automatic.

A picture would be the ideal answer I'm looking for.

Also, what do you guys recommended, chain? seat belt?

Thanks guys

Seeing Eric The Car Guy work, He just uses an old seat belt, and wraps around the entire engine to hoist.

Personally, I don't like this method, maybe for him it's easy since he's experienced. For a first timer like me, I don't find it safe, I don't want to risk dropping the engine on the ground and if there ARE some specific place to hook a chain for that purpose then why not?
