Re: Engine Pull/Install with headers
The plates are attached to the cylinder head at the water ports.

Re: Engine Pull/Install with headers
Also, the holes in the plates are elongated to allow the 1/2” bolts to rock vertical to connect to the crossbar. The underside of the bolt heads are also rounded a bit to helpout with this. Be sure to run the three 8mm bolts down tight that attach the plates to the cylinder head.

Re: Engine Pull/Install with headers
Engine is out, project is moving forward nicely. Here’s the lifting hardware I fabricated to distribute the weight. Worked like a charm. Engine was out in 20min.

Re: Engine Pull/Install with headers
I plan to at least check the pin locations. Not sure I’m ready to tackle exact cam timing without adult supervision.
