Re: 69 Engine BB lift hook???????
Thanks Rick, it was great to see you at SCR8, along with all the cool memorabilia you brought along! I really like those Chevrolet Sports Department signs..
Excuse my ignorance, but is there a different rear lift bracket on a 1970 big block? My L78 did not have one front or rear, we used accessory bolt holes to hoist the engine out.. -Sam

Re: 69 Engine BB lift hook???????
So I got a set of engine lift brackets off eBay for my L78, and it's easy to see how to mount the front one, on the front two driver side inlet manifold bolts.
But where does that rear one mount, and at what angle? Is it the inboard accessory bolt hole in the back of the passenger head? Does the tab stick straight up?

Re: 69 Engine BB lift hook???????
It goes on the back of the head Sam. This picture should help.

Re: 69 Engine BB lift hook???????
Are the plug wires on the LS6 originals?
There was a discussion in the last few days about the lightning bolt vs the Oval Packard Logo

Too many years of parts in the tool box! That's the bracket I asked Rick about. I saw a similar one on a '68 L78 Nova but couldn't find the owner to ask about it. If you look closely (easy to do with Chuck's picture) you can see a dogleg bend in the bracket. That's the same as the one on the Nova.
