Safer And Easier Engine Swaps for Your Oval Track Race Car

Your typical sprint car or late model has a lot going on in the engine compartment. They’re crammed full of go fast parts, chassis tubing, and more, that make extricating your engine for a refresh or to swap to your backup engine a bit of a nightmare. The traditional engine lift plate requires removal of induction pieces for attaching to the intake and the engine hoist chain that many engine hoists come with quickly become frustrating to use due to weight and how easily they can damage paint, powder coat, and more on your chassis due to the tight confines of trying to mount at the front and back of the engine versus side mounting like this sling does.

Struggling with a traditional block and tackle or chain fall isn’t the best course of action and often your race car is immobile, so you have to use a traditional engine hoist to pull your race car’s engine up and away from the chassis to place the engine on an engine stand for repair or storage. Using our two point engine lifting sling with your engine hoist is going to be the safest and fastest way to remove your engine from your race car’s chassis. Frankly, it can be used on just about any engine and chassis combo with the adjustability we engineered into it!

Built Strong and Built to Last With Fully Adjustable Lift Staps

Starting with our engine lift plate, we designed in plenty of adjustability with twelve 1/2-inch strap mounting holes placed every 1-3/4-inches. The large lift hook slot accommodates the typical engine lift snap-hook, while the 1/4-inch thick plate steel material prevents flexing or bending even when lifting the heaviest of engines. We then give it plenty of protection and a bit of beautification with a gloss black powder coat finish.

The included pair of lift straps are made from strong nylon weave material that is 1-3/4-inches wide and feature 1/2-inch mounting hole brackets on the lift plate ends and 3/8-inch mounting hole brackets on the engine ends. Both ends are powder coated black as well for long term protection. We include 1/2-inch zinc plated mounting hardware to mount the engine lifting straps to the lift plate. For the 3/8-inch engine end you’ll use the stud or bolt on your exhaust cover plates (we offer block off plates for standard and spread port Chevy heads), or existing header bolts/studs. The nylon straps are adjustable from 17-1/2-inches to 25-1/4-inches in length to accommodate most any engine and induction package. The whole package is rated for 1,200 pounds of lifting capacity, so whether it is a fully dressed race engine, or you're pulling that crusty old big block for a rebuild, you can feel safe doing it.

Lift Your Engine Quickly and Easily Each and Every Time

Attaching to your engine hoist or shop crane is simple with our generously sized lift hook slot. Engine application will determine where to mount the engine lift straps to the lift plate and the length of the strap as well. The larger the induction setup you need to clear the further the straps will need to be spaced. Once you’ve determined the proper spacing and engine hoist strap length, bolt the straps to the engine lift plate. Tighten the hardware enough to take up the slack but still allowing the strap’s end plate to pivot slightly. On the engine end of the engine lift straps be sure to offset your mounting (do not use the same exhaust bolt holes on each side) to prevent engine rolling when lifting. Staggering the mounting points will keep the engine level as you lift it. Be it your Saturday night race engine, or that big block you’re looking to drop into your project truck on Sunday, our 2 point engine lifting slings will get the job done quickly and safely.
