Anyone loaded a motor into a pickup truck using an engine lift?
I'm very worried that the lift won't go high enough to get it on to the truck's bed. Does anyone know how much a ZC weighs approx.? Only thing I've read is that it weighs very close to the SI engine so if you know it's weight that would work. Thanks

It only took three people to lift my entire b16a swap with tranny attached into a pickup.

It might be tough because you can only make the chains so short but I think you should be able to do it. Unless you're loading it onto a tall 4x4 which would suck

i've loaded multiple motors in multiple trucks. never had a problem. just as long as you're not trying to lift it up into Big Foot or Gravedigger you won't have a problem.
