If you end up with it there for a while I also use a jackstand under the oil pan to keep it up, but it really wont hurt much with it tilted back but you'll want it level if your using the lifting brackets for the LT5 the fire wall will get in the way of the rear one.

Thanks Johnny. I will probably use the method of bolting on the chain as suggested by you and Jeff since I don't have the lifting brackets. I still have to take off the bellhousing, clutch and flywheel too; I'll try to attack that today while I have a day off.
