I had planned to follow a couple others' example and suspend the engine via a 3-ft chain with one end attached to the provided hoist hook point in back of the engine and the other end bolted to a motor mount bolt hole in front. However, I don't see why the chain couldn't be bolted to another point [see photo], which would have the advantage of making it possible to mount the engine while it's still suspended from a hoist or engine support bar, since the motor mount bolt holes wouldn't be unimpeded. Looks to me like it would be a solid chain attachment point. Do I hear any warnings, cautions, or admonitions against it? If not, it shall be utilized as a attachment point. Sine die.
