- 1971 Mustang Grande, originally bought new by my father in Louisville, KY at Bill Collins Ford. Original color Medium Green Metallic, 302 2V engine, 3 speed manual, medium or dark green vinyl top and interior, and few other options.
I have been shopping engine hoists for a while and wondered what size hoist users here would recommend. I am pulling a small block 302 and going to return that engine to the bay or possibly a 306 crate motor. Also planning to unbolt the transmission from the motor and just pull the motor. Thinking I will have to put the motor back in and then install the transmission. Just a note here, I am going to swap out the stock 3 speed manual for a T-5 I already have in storage.
So what size hoist should I get? I have looked at 1 ton, 1.5 ton, and 2 ton hoists so far.
