Nothing wrong with a chain. With a 4th gen f boat you can support the engine with a bar across the strut tower and hanging a chain from it connecting it to the plate. That would leave the bottom of the car free to work on without the legs of a cherry picker getting in the way. You can't do that with a vette though.

I can rent it out with a deposit. It has supported a couple of engines already and is good to go.
