    Hey guys, Im gettin an L67 from a local shop, and Im pretty sure we can get it into my truck, but without tools or anything, how do you get it out from the truck so it can be disassembled for a top swap? There is only two of us available so lifting it is out of the question I believe...

    put it on a pallet. it is easiest to move around with an engine lift though..

    youre going to have to make something to pick it up. maybe put straps around the engine lift points and then put a pole through the staps and lift on each end?

    it's not amazingly heavy. you can do it with two people. set it down on something like a tire so you dont smash the oil pan.

    we put a l26 in the back of a impala, took two people lifting basically
    if your lifting, the heavy side is the one with all the pulleys, so grab the crossover side of the engine...
