That hoist sure made "fine tuning" engine position easy for my conversion.

i.e. getting the drive train level with the vehicle, then measuring up
and making the parts for the engine carrier. It was also really useful
for setting the best engine height.

And it also worked great to get the engine in. --- ;^)
