Dan, Thank you Sir.

No problem installing the engine from the side, I like to have the car on a lift as well.
Lift the car so the engine hoist legs will just clear under the lift, engine in over the side.
With the CSX, Kirkham, HiTech etc, you can install the engine with out removing the hood this way.
Here is a picture of the 427 engine about to go in Bill's HiTech.
