Engine Lift Mounts (Using an Engine Hoist)
Hello Everyone,
I'm pulling an engine this weekend and I am curious where the engine lift mounts are. I have found lots of threaded holes that I considered putting 5/16ths eye bolts into but I am having second thoughts. Does anyone have a picture of what bolts these are. Also is it necessary to drain fluids if I'm only moving the engine and tranny 4 feet?
I'm following this guide. https://www.rx7club.com/2nd-gen-arch...emoval-376601/
Thanks everyone for the help! pretty excited.

The stock lifting point on the front is literally right in front of the eye bolt in the last pic
It's that ear sticking up right in front of it
And you need to lift from the other side of the rear iron, from what I can see they're both in the front of the engine, good luck trying to get it out that way
It needs to be a balanced load so you can lift it out level
And don't uses those eye bolts in the housing, its aluminum and could strip while lifting and drop your shiz
Do your self a favor and pull the uim, then you'll have access to the rear ear by the passenger side firewall
Make sure your mounting your lift points to iron, not aluminum, good luck man have fun

Don't use 5/16 bolts. The car is metric. You'll screw the threads up.
