    Engine hoist, block & tackle etc

    Anyone got a block & tackle and a frame for sale? etc.

    Basically i'm after the required tools for lifting an engine in and out of my car.

    thanks.

    I made a frame using five eight foot scaff tubes- one large shackle ( to hang on the top tube) and a chain block (or block and tackle)- and some suitable chain that I made adjustable using a bolt that would go through two links. I went to my local scaffolding firm and bought the tubes for about £30. Gotta be a block on ebay, surely.
