unstable on lift?

Got my 912 on a 4 point lift with front fenders, doors, hood off and interior out. If I install the engine, will the car be unstable where it will tip back off the lift? Anybody have this experience?

I doubt it. I would guess that the rear lift point is right in from of the rear wheel??

Then there is a lot a leverage forward, but if your really concerned, you can put some temp weight up front to balance it out.
