lifting eyes on ecotec?

does the ecotec have lifing eyes? i can't see any on the engine! does vauxhall sell them? i'm a bit wary of the way i'm lifting just now, with a nylon strap underneath. its not very well balanced...

Lifting my C20LET in and out (several times) we just used the bolts in the head - with some chain and strong bolts.

If you use 4 bolts and pieces of chain its much easier

I done this 4 times twice out twice in - in an Astra Mk3 Turbo - worked fine.

Cheers

Mine does (1.4) - bolt on ones. One on exhaust stud of number 4, the other somewhere near inlet number 1. I do suspect there is meant to be another one near the ECU/inlet 4 but not sure.

Pre V8/6 jag engines had eyes that bolt in place of the exhaust manifold but we just put plenty of strong rope roundump and bellhousing.





How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?
