In the shop I rig the hoist so it moves sideways
The car can be slowly rolled forward of back
We use aircraft grade bolts on everything and the best chain we can buy
Easiest cars to drop an engine into were the XKE Jags
The whole forward tilting front section forward of the doors and windshild can be removed at the front hinges
You can walk right into the engine compartment then
It’s like Tinker Toys with power hoist and air wrenches then
You can swap in an enigine in under 10 minutes with a Corona in one hand if you set things up safely and correctly
