Re: Best Attachment points to remove a 292?

I pulled the 235 and SM420 out using one of the intake/exhaust manifold bolts around cylinder #5 and a coil mounting bolt on the passenger side. It was perfectly balanced coming out of the frame.

You don't really need the leveler. They are handy when pulling a motor with trans, so you can change the balance point to get the trans in/out.

You don't really need 4 points. Just eyeball where you think the center of balance is going to be. You'll know pretty quick if you got it wrong.
