Pulling the engine

Jump This

Just another minion!
I'm ready to pull the engine out of the '96.
I can see a good chain mount for the front (exhaust manifold bolt)
but where is the ideal location for the back of the engine?
 
Be careful about using the exhaust manifold bolt... i have seen one bend once or twice. If you replace the bolt with a longer one it fixes that problem.
I used the ground point on the block, passenger side where the starting grounds to, once it worked that one time. I would recommend using the engine ground to body in the very back top by the valve cover, with a nice thick washer for support.
Good luck!
 
done 3 motor swaps, always used the rear head bolt that the ground conects to and the idler pully bolt in the frt, never had a issue
