I bet our garages look a lot alike! haha (Except I have fewer Boxsters than you do )

I hope that your garage is bigger than mine and a lot less cluttered. I expect that Ferrari needs some personal space.

I've used a floor jack, I've used a motorcycle jack and I've used a table jack to remove a motor and transmission out of a 986 and 996. Hands down the table jack is far better than the other two.

I combined a table jack along with the support from an adjustable homemade cross beam and it's pretty stable specially when you don't have a helper
