Has anyone tried the "Oberg Tilt Lift" that Moss sells? If it works, it looks like a real timesaver. I seem to recall trying to avoid resting the engine on the steering rack while I re-balanced the 1

Nope. I can't justify $75 for a device that mounts diagonally and would tend to roll the unit as it tilts. For that feature, I can pick up a $5 2" wide nylon strap from Horrible Fright, hook one end

I know for a FACT David, you could actually borrow Ed's!!! Having done so, I can FLAT tell you it is W A Y easier than you "idea". As Ed IS prone to say: K I S S !! j.

My way was simpler, faster, and easier than attaching the Oberg. Where does the K I S S come in with that? Besides, Horrible Fright is a lot closer than Ed's. David Lieb

While reading John Thornley's "Maintaining the Breed" this morning, I came across this passage referring to the J.C.C. 1000 Miles in May 1932: "But as the race leaders had not yet reached the quarter

Jim, Since the strap is essentially a figure-8 with the crane hook in the center with both ends attached to it as well as the middle of the strap passing through it, whenever I want to adjust the an

umm.. of course it will also allow the uncontrollable tilting in either direction if something goes wrong. I bought one of the cheapo screw type levelers from HF some years ago and it works like a ch

You would think so, but with the amount of sliding that the 2" wide nylon strap has to do to tilt, there is nothing uncontrolled about the tilting. I have used the 4-chain tilt bars; for use with a

The strap cost me all of $5. Your rotor probably cost you $40. If you want to talk theory, your chains will wear out, too. In my lifetime? Of course not. Friction has never stopped working for me ye

I don't get the fuss over the leveller. I've pulled bugsy's motor both with and without trans attached several times. A short piece of chain attached at the rearmost manifold stud and a thermostat ho

I agree, that is exactly how I do it. Use a chain, select the link to give the right angle and away you go. I also use a trolly jack under the tranny and stuff a piece of foam on top ofthe gearbox t
