Lifting a C30+transmission on a crane (engine already out of car)
I've got a spare NSX engine and transmission on a pallet, and I want to put the engine on to an engine stand. I have ordered a 1-ton engine crane, and I'm wondering which are the best hoisting points to use. There's the obvious one - vertical bracket near the alternator. Easily accessible and near the top for clearance. Ideal.
And there's also a similar bracket on the transmission. But I don't want to use that as I will want to get the transmission off in order to get the C30 on to an engine stand. It's also quite a lot lower.
Is there a most suitable point somewhere in the vicinity of the throttle body? (I haven't tried dismantling anything yet to see if there's another bracket ready and waiting for this purpose.)
Suggestions?
