Hi Jerry,
        I have an EZ Car Lift.  It is very compact and takes up =
virtually no garage space when stored on it's side. It takes less that =
10 minutes form storage to having the car up in the air.  It li its the =
car 26=E2=80=9D.  A decent working hight for a low garage ceiling =
garage. The unit use a 1/2 inch drill to rise and lower my car  It works =
well for my occasional use. I do believe that it=E2=80=99s max lifting =
weight is 2500 pounds.  Within the weight range of most LBCs. I believe =
the Quick Jack raise faster but, but doesn=E2=80=99t lift as high. Many =
for the other low lift hydraulic lifts take up a lot of storage space =
and must be bolted into place.  Not an issue if you want to permanently =
mount it, but a pain if you want to only use it occasionally
        Hope this helps.
        Bob
