I use a nicely chiseled piece of wood. Started with a 2x6 and added and subtracted to get around the sump plate and shore up the sides. I fit it to the engine while the engine was still in the car. The 1st time I pulled it I marked the balance point on the side of the wood so I know next time where to put the jack. It is still shaky, but not as much as with no wood.

I have since bought an ATV/Cycle jack and will be using it for the 1st time to install the rebuilt mill. On the new engine I will be fabricating a jack point/tow hook, but that will not help with removal, just jacking the car up.

Best regards,

Michael
