By the date you may be beyond this now but one trick I used was to take some old 'stair treads' from a new house construction site, these are usually tossed after the house ic finished. The treads are 2 X 10 (maybe thicker), I used about 3 under each wheel with some 2 X 4 X 10" spacers running cross ways to get an overall height of about 10 inches. Very stable, I'm VERY cautious about getting under a car, and high enough for my 230lb 50 something body!
I used someone elses suggestion about a 2 foot by 3 foot (approx) sheet of plywood, I used two thicknesses of 5/8 . After lowering I blocked the edges of the plywood to get the jack out then a very old and heavy 'crow bar' to lift slightly and gradually lower the block height til the sheets rested on 1 1/4 alluminum 1/4 wall tubing. I used about 4 pieces about 18" lond and by moving the back one to the front as you roll the engine along moved it where I wanted to in the garage. Because of clutch problems (see other post) I've done this twice in the last two months :-))
Good luck
