The small block crate engine that I installed specifically warned aginst using a lift plate on the aluminium manifold. Could be that they were just covering their butts from a lawsuit but I was definitely more confident with the leveler and chain approach. Especially since I installed the engine and transmission at the same time and needed a pretty severe angle to get it in.
