suggestions on transportation of old engine...

so my engine swap is done, my euro-r runs VERY smooth compared to my h22a1, it's very quiet, has A LOT of engine response, we had some idle problems... idle going to 3000 rpms, purely throttle cable related so far the shop thinks the idle problem has been fixed..., also my power steering pump decided to break so i'm trying to buy one right now... so if anyone is selling one hit me up with a pm or something...

anyways so we have my h22a1 just laying in the shop right now, and we want to keep it in my garage, but how am i going to get it off of my truck onto the ground of the garage without a cherry picker? anyone has any suggestions? the engine still has the old tranny on it and everything so i don't know what to do...

Well, I know I could dead lift my tranny on my own. You might want to separate the two and try to lift them down. You definatly want a strong buddy to help with the block though, it is fairly heavy. Other wise you could try rigging a block and takle to the rafters in the garage, back the truck in, lift the engine, pull the truck out, and drop the engine.

Tie a rope to a cross beam in your garage and lift it that way?
