Thats the only way I would do it... I have taken my intake manifold off and those bolts, bolting it down are tiny. I would not rely on even four of those bolts supporting a 400lb motor. They sell a plate to bolt to the lower intake manifolds for 5.0's. Theres no way you can do that on our plastic motors. They should make a plate to bolt to the cylinder heads after you remove the intake manifold, one for the 2v and 4v... Someone make it and market it.. ok?

I put two bolts on the rear most intake manifold bolt holesand the the other two where the alternator bolts into the block. I pulled the motor 3 times the same way and it worked fine.

I used the 2 top most tranny bolt holes and the in the front the alt bolts. I went out and bought stronger bolts for it and it worked just fine.
