Keep in mind the pictured lift point is at the rear of the engine, so it is not balanced at all. It also doesn't look real strong to me. As mentioned, it is intended to be a way of supporting the rear of the engine while pulling the trans. You will need to come up with a front lift point, so you can lift at front and rear, to lift the engine while keeping it level. I attached to one of the bolts that holds the front engine mount, although the lift chain put some stress on the front of the pulleys - probably not ideal.
