Bolts to the in place of the valley cover. Aids in lifting motors in and out. Let's be serious.

Or just use a chain with a bolt through it. One bolt in each cylinder head.

I did the bolt in each cylinder head when I did my last one in my truck. I forgot to you guys that I'm doing this in an F-Body. The motor sits back in the firewall a little bit so the bolt trick won't work now. Especially with the tranny attached.

I have the QTP plate from Thunder Racing. It didn't show up until about 4 months after I ordered it though.
