Worked for me...
When I pulled the engine 6 months ago... I just used a few of the OEM headbolts in opposite corners of the block. The auto was later pulled (dropped) when I decided to go for a 5 spd. conversion.
I just picked up some chain from Home Depot... the ring for the cherry picker was a 2,000 lb capacity and the chain was 850+ lb of dead weight. On this chain,I verified the size I needed not only my the weight of the block... but also the size of the bolts (the links had to be small enough so the head bolt wouldn't pull through).
HTH,
Patrick
During install... the engine AND tranny will be done together.
