'67 Fry Fix
Engine crane lifted engine, but cannot stay as it sticks out the front of the garage.
Steel bar across the top, wooden supports screwed together, chain to top of engine with grade 8 bolts.
Wood supports screwed together up to both engine mounts. Jack supporting engine at oil pan, wood block and something to prevent scratches on top of jack.
Chain from bar is slightly loose, the bulk of the support comes from the wood braces on the bottom and the floor jack.
All 3 things held the engine up alone. If chain becomes tight, there's something up with the other 2.
Next, wire wheel the entire k-frame, a few coats of rust encapsulator, paint, bolt it back in.
I can always pull it again in the spring to put a new steering box in, and do any mods to the k-frame itself, I just want the engine supported with the frame over the winter.
