what is the best way to hook up the engine pick to these cars. Is there a plate which bolts up to the throttle body bolts? If so where can I get one?
 
you can get the plate that bolts to the intake i cant remember who sales them right off the top of my head. but if not there is a hole on the back of the block driver side and you can run a bolt somewhere else and lift it that way. pretty easy.
 
I just ran a ratcheting 1000 lb lifting strap under the doghouse/intake, worked great.
 
I usually just pop the intake off and run a couple bolts into the heads. This combined with a engine leveler makes it about as painless as possible.
 
Just take off the upper plenem and run a chain and bolts into the ends of the heads crisscrossing the block-ie- from the front of one head to the rear of the other head-strong way of doing it, i would not trust lifting the engine by the intake.i have done about 10 engine pulls this way-never any trouble.
