DIY 986 Engine Removal Folks, What's the best jack to use?

Working on a longterm engine rejuvenation and have been looking for a cheap used engine and/or transmission jack when it comes time to reinstall the power parts and I'm curious of the opinions of what works well and what doesn't. Usually I see people using a hydraulic table lift but these are expensive and far between for used examples. So that led me to motorcycles jacks as they are always commonly available used and relatively cheap, sometimes as low as $50. They seem like they will work well but just curious if any of you good people have used these jacks for removal or installation of the M96 hunk of trouble?

Any thoughts on this is appreciated....Thanks!
