[Healeys] Engine Lifting

[Rick Swain]

I'm looking for advice here. In the past I have removed and installed engine and gearbox separately. This time I'm thinking of replacing both together. I've seen posts on this and it makes sense but I'm a little concerned about using the valve cover studs to lift both engine and gearbox. I have the BMC L brackets and I've used these in the past to lift just the engine - I've always been a little concerned about trusting those studs with the weight of the engine. Is that how people lift the combined weight of engine and gearbox?
Thanks
