I would just get a large floor jack and some plywood and 2x6+ scraps. Really. You'll want to just pull the engine (leave the tanny there. With a large floor jack and the right pieces of wood you can wiggle and change the angle of the engine during removal and installation. I've done it this way several times before I got a lift.
Get some jack stands (the large ones to hold the rear end of the car in the air high enough to clear the engine when you pull it. Get some more jack stands to support the engine (under the plywood or 2x6) during the repair. You don't want to have it tip over on you.
The motorcycle lifts can qork, but they don't allow the flexibility of the floor jacks.
I use to do all my engine drops using 2 large jack stands, two small jack stands and my 3.5Ton Craftsman floor jack.....plus some scrap wood.
