5.3 to 6.0 swap
#44
I'm about to do this swap. How are you guys actually pulling the engine out? The unofficial repair book I have says to hook the chains to the header-to-head bolts, but it just doesn't sound safe to me. Or am I being overly cautious?

that's how we used to yank them at the dealer
BUT DONT USE THE ACTUAL HEADER BOLTS!!!!! they will snap
use grade 8 bolts of the same size and thread in those holes

Used a load leveler type, no issues at all.
