Lifting the engine and box is far easier. I'm in. Buy an engine crane from machine mart. I did and sold it and lost £20 which is excellent considering I had it for months.

Yes. That's the one I bought. It's heavy. Assemble it before the meet because it rakes a good 1hour to put up.

I have provisional plans for Sat 23rd, but could certainly help out on 24th if you want an extra pair of hands.

I bought the eBay version of that crane, it definitely does the job. I've had a couple of engines in and out using mine without any dramas :)
