Thanks Tony. Its always been my plan to remove 3.2 and G50 as one unit.

But I think stripping the engine down to the long block prior to removal provides numerous advantages, particularly if lifting evenly from four corners. For example, lighter weight, lower clearance, easier engine stand mounting, safer, ect.

I think the narrow dimension of the long block is roughly half the height of the entire engine. So I think the jack stand height should not be a problem. But I could be wrong.

I welcome other opinions.
