After reviewing the engine removal threads I still have a couple questions.

If you have a factory iron intake manifold, use one of those engine removal plates that bolts to the carb flange of the intake. lots of people say you can do it with an aluminum intake, but I wouldn't
Also, DO NOT try to do it by yourself. Have at least two buddies helping. Two people who have done it a lot can do it OK, but if you are rather inexperienced at pulling engines, I'd have three total!
