YHXCUIER LS Engine Lift Plate Universal 1,000 lb Heavy-Duty Iron Black 3 Tilt Positions

This YHXCUIER LS Engine Lift Plate is engineered as a universal solution for lifting older carbureted V8s and many modern LS-series engines during engine swaps, rebuilds, or removal. Built from reinforced iron and fitted with properly sized imperial fasteners, the plate accommodates common carburetor bolt patterns and offers three lift positions so you can achieve the angle you need for clearance and safe handling.

Will this plate fit my carbureted Chevy or Ford V8?

Yes—this lift plate is designed to match standard carburetor bolt patterns used on many classic intake manifolds and carb brands. It works with Carter Thermo-Quad, Edelbrock, Motorcraft, Rochester Quadrajet patterns and similar bolt layouts found on SBC and BBC engines.

• Accepts common carb bolt patterns—fits many classic intakes.
• Provides mounting points that match older carburetors and manifolds.
• Ideal for engines kept with intake installed when pattern allows.

Can I lift an LS Gen 3 or Gen 4 engine with this plate attached?

You can use the plate with LS-series engines, but LS Gen 3/Gen 4 engines require removal of the intake manifold and valley cover tray so the plate can be secured directly to the block. When installed correctly it supports lifting with the transmission attached up to the rated capacity.

• LS engines need intake and valley tray removed for secure fitment.
• Supports lifting with transmission on when properly mounted.
• Three lifting positions let you set the proper tilt for clearance.

How strong and durable is the YHXCUIER lift plate?

The plate is fabricated from heavy iron and features reinforced welds at critical joints to prevent flex and extend working life. Unlike thin-plate designs, this model emphasizes thicker welds and robust construction to withstand repeated professional use.

• Overbuilt welds reduce flex and risk of failure under load.
• Durable iron construction with anti-rust treatment for repeated use.
• Rated to handle engines up to 1,000 lb in the specified configurations.

What hardware and installation steps are required?

YHXCUIER provides imperial fasteners that match factory thread standards, avoiding mismatched metric bolts and reducing the chance of stripped threads. Installation is straightforward: secure the plate to the engine block with the supplied screws and lift with a standard engine hoist, observing any required intake or tray removal for your engine type.

• Includes imperial bolts matched to common engine thread sizes.
• Fasten plate to the block, then attach hoist to chosen lift point.
• Follow recommended torque and safety checks before lifting.

Who is this for? This lift plate is made for home mechanics, restoration shops, and professional technicians who need a flexible, heavy-duty hoist mounting option for small-block and big-block carbureted V8 engines as well as LS-series blocks (with intake removal). If you want robust welds, correct imperial fasteners, three tilt positions, and a 1,000 lb working capacity for engine removal or installation, this YHXCUIER plate gives a reliable, universal solution for many Chevy and Ford V8 projects.
