Believe it or not the best lift I have used to put the engine in is a hoist, I have used just about everything atv, jack, now the lift table. But the boom engine hoist is the easiest as it swings around the engine and you can tip and tilt it and effortlessly control the engine . I have the stock six mount and getting that little bugger mounting nub in and under to install the bolt is tough on a jack or ATV lift. The only thing bad about using the hoist for me is I have to drag it up a hill from behind the shed in the back yard.
