i used a leg off of a cherry picker to lay across the shock towers and wrapped tow straps around the cherry picker leg and around 2 of my header tubes on both sides of the engine to keep the motor up while i lowered the k-member.....i have a picture on my phone i'll see how i can upload it....it looks ghetto but seemed to work really well.....thanks to some good buddies in North Carolina for that idea

How does it sound now? Any funny noises from the oil pressure problem?

no everything sounds normal....i did notice some lifter noise before when there was 0 oil pressure but nothing noticable now....just the dang water pump leaking in the middle...from what i've been reading it seems that if its leaking from the weep hole it's time to replace it

That's what I've read in the past too. Weeping --> replace.
