What's are the best places to hoist a flathead from???

[randy]

I'm pulling the motor & tranny out of the '53 Vic tomorrow. What points on the motor are best to bolt the hoist chain to?

Thanks.

Id use the head bolts or take off the intake.

A queue???? I don't understand that LIMEY SLANG. Do you mean a LINE? Crazy Brit. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Actually, I'm not getting rid of it. I decided to scrap the Y-block notion & keep the Flathead as long as it's running well.

Yorg,

I've actually got somewhere to be (thanks to the wife) tomorrow, so I may not be able to get to it.

So... Head bolts? I figured that would be right, just wanted to check.
