How high for bottom up engine install?

I'm going to get the front end out and rebuilt,then I'll see if I can come up with a safe way to get it lifted high enough to slide it all under the car.

Safe, being the key word.

Just so I'm clear, everything can be installed complete, ie headers, starter etc?

Yeah, that’s the big advantage. If you install everything from the bottom on the K frame most headers can be bolted to the engine. Same for the starter, basically the complete engine will go in from the bottom on the K. I’m sure there’s some exception but the TTI’s and Doug’s should be able to be installed that way.
