Two 1/2-13 eye bolts from the hardware store will be more than adequate for lifting a Chevy engine. We used eye bolts for lifting some much heavier stuff in my Powder Coating Shop. Weld the eye if you are squeamish.
I have an angle iron with loops welded on the vertical flange. Two holes are drilled in the horizontal flange to match the long rocker arm studs.
I choose the loop that gives me the best balance. With different rocker stud holes, it has lifted 207, 216, and 235 engines and will be getting a shot at a 261, coming up.
