Thanks. If I can not get a lifting eye to screw into the motor how do I secure the motor to the lift straps, rope? I imagine a chain would damage the finish.
I use a 3" wide yellow strap, I make my own harness, and it is different everytime!! LOL

When doing this you have to make sure that you tie under the front of the motor to the top of the harness, as it will tilt forward and filp up side down, Don't ask how I know!! :-X

Just go slow and becareful not to have ant fingers around! You will be fine!

I have done this many times and I will be doing it again soon when the new motor gets here, and this will be a 225 hp bigest I have had to do yet!
