Lifting Engine Question

[ViperTony]

I'm getting ready to pull my engine and ship it off to Greg Good for version 2.0 of his goodies. What's the best method to pull my GenII engine using a hoist? Is there a recommended bracket for this procedure? I can fabricate brackets that attach to the heads at the manifold area and lift from there. Wondering if brackets already exist for this purpose? If so, where can I find them?

Thanks in advance.

It's been a while but it looks like I used a water pump bolt on the right front. A bolt in the head on the left front? A bolt on the right rear head and a bell housing bolt or casting ear on the left rear of the block.
