I read somewhere in the 'Garage' about a jack from Sam's Club that was selling for about $109-$129 that a few members had found very suitable for engine removal.
I can not seem to find the link. My search function is not working correctly for some reason. Anyone have the link? Thanks. |

Yup! (not dumb on your part Kevin, it's highly unusual on a 914-4 engine) I modified it to only have two stages and I scavenge both valve covers. It also pulls the crankcase pressure well below atmospheric. BTW, with that engine plate I can easily, quickly and safely install/remove the engine by myself. No balancing act, and the engine drops close to the floor to clear the rear of the car. |
