Tightening flywheel on my tranny and i have everything unbolted and it will pretty much take 2 minutes to get the tranny off the motor but before i take the mounts off the tranny i thought i should support the motor. Only thing that scares me is that the oil pan might get crushed. My plan was a jack under the tranny and a jack with a piece of wood under the engine. Had hoist available when i swapped but not now until i can buy one. So am i good with 2 jacks and wood?

 

the oil pan will not get crushed by the weight of the engine, and a jack/wood should be enough to support it if the rest of the car also supported by jackstands.
but if the jack/wood is supporting the whole car via oil pan = bad idea

 

Yeah, jack + wood will support the motor just fine. Just make sure its a longer piece of wood that will go from end to end on the oil pan.

 

put some jack stands under your car so it wont fall

 

ok it seems to hold up. yeah the front of the car is on stands already with 2 jacks supporting motor and tranny. thanks guys
