Engine/trans is ready to pull, 95 R.
The PO pulled the head before I got the car. So that nice hole in the top mount is not there on the trans side, that is what I have used before to pull the engine/trans out the top.
Any suggested attachment points or setups for the hoist? Would a chain around the auto trans be a good solution?
I don't want to ruin anything ... I don't have any flat webbing, just chains, but I suppose I could go get some if a chain won't work. Hoping to do this mid-morning on Saturday.

I think I'm going to put in a few old head bolts in that corner of the engine and attach the chain to those. The block is ruined anyway so strain on the threads is no ta big deal, and I don't care if it bends the bolts.
