and if the bolt strips out under the massive weight.... then what??? damage the motor from the fall, damage your car.... no bueno...

the best way to remove the engine is from the bottom of the car, or use a heavy tow strap and wrap around stock mounts.

^lol this guy has no idea what hes talking about.
any 14mm head bolt from any other spot on the motor will work. think power sterring bolts. i have swapped over 300 hondas and ive been doing it for 15 years. you can also tie onto the alternator bracket, power steering bracket or mount bracket. the tranny has a loop bracket bolted to it.

the best thing to use is a seatbelt.
