[Tigers] Mounting points

[Mark Burnett]

I've have R&R'ed my engine a few times, by myself.  I have always taken it out 
from underneath.  The front end does need to be lifted, but not too high as I 
roll the engine/trans in and out through the wheel well.  I built a rolling 
cradle for the engine that rests on the oil pan mounting flange, and I have a 
cheap harbor freight transmission dolly/scissors jack that I put under the 
transmission.  to lift the engine, I purchased a lifting plate that mounts to 
the carburetor flange on the intake manifold.  With the scissors jack, I can 
lift the transmission independently and change the "tilt" of the assembly.  I 
did cut the strap ears off the transmission dolly, but I don't remember if that 
was for the tiger project or something else.

lift plate is similar to this:  http://www.jegs.com/i/JEGS/555/80044/10002/-1
