Lift 440 fully dressed +trans with this?

I've done LA V-8s with the plate and without the trans. I used studs and nuts to secure the plate to the intake (one was a Performer). I made sure the studs were completely seated in the manifold and the nuts snug against the plate. No problems with any of the lifts.

The load leveler makes it easier to adjust the angle of the dangle in the middle of the lift than it is with a plate.

IDK how Jensen originally installed the engine. If it's like the A-body, it may be a cleaner install to drop the K-member and install from the bottom.
