Default Engine Install Question

Have everything ready to go back in and wanted to know if it it is possible or if others have attached the tranny to make less under the car work? When I removed the engine I used the Happy Hooker and, because I do not have an adjustable boom, had to move the plate forward and only attach to the front 4 valley cover bolt holes. Should I be concerned about adding the tranny weight to the bolts? Thanks for any advise.
