Sorry...... I'm late.

That is a very, VERY, VERY bad idea ....... unless you want to buy a head. It's aluminum you know. You'll pull the threads right out of the head. Or crack it, or pull the whole thing apart, drop the engine, shatter the pan, bend up the tin-work, and then wonder why on earth you ever thought that was a good idea. Use the head bolts. Most engines have lift brackets on them. If not, a piece of angle iron with a hole drilled in both sides, using a head bolt in one hole, and the chain in the other is a much better idea.


BTW. A model "A" has a CAST IRON cylinder head......
And I still wouldn't pull even that engine like that.
