    Need a favor can someone measure there valley plate for me or lift plate?

    I need to make a lift plate to pick up a motor i am getting.

    If anyone could measure out there valley plate cover or there lift plate that would be awsome.

    I've looked for a template and nothing

    I want to build one before I head over 3 hours away to get motor .

    This is problably the best method I've seen
    Just use some of the bolts from the belt drive most all 15mm headed bolts will fit and pick up the actual chain device it's called a "leveler" 50$ at pepboys
