Pretty much same as title.I'm swapping my TBI engine for a 91Z TPI engine,The throttle body engine is out,but where can I hook the chains to pull the TPI engine with all the accessories still on it?

I put my chains on the heads. One on the front of the drivers side acc. bracket. The other I put on the back of the passanger side heads.

www.tpis.com sells a tool called the "happy hooker" for engine swaps of all sorts, I would look into that. it seems to be a good design.

thanks,reason I was asking is a have an engine leveler that makes it easy to swap motors but this is the first TPI motor swap i've actually done and you cant get to the intake bolts to hook it up and the chains aren't long enough to hook up anywhere else.Looks like i'll be using the single chain method...i just don't want to risk messing any accessories up.

just get some longer bolts and attach the thing, that is how i did it, and just reinstalled the shorter ones again.
