I believe that you can easily position this table (or something similar) between the ramps on the lift and once you remove the mounts, harness, hoses, etc., you can raise the car and leave the engine/gearbox laying on the table.

I really wish I had a lift..

I guess it all comes down to if the engine will fit between the ramps on the lift. Thanks for the heads up.
