Supporting the engine?

I had thought about that but was worried that the oil pan might get damaged?
I lowered eng/trans down let oil pan rest on center link and T56 weighs 140 pounds. No impacts to oil pan at all. I have a Kevko oil pan on there which is a reproduction oil pan with a larger sump welded on the bottom. Did same thing taking 727 trans in out in the past and those are heavy pigs too....
