I need to remove a dead 6.5l diesel from my 1997 Chevy SMB, and noticed a few interesting things while determining how to go about it.
1.) I think the end of the cherry picker in this video (the last 13 seconds) has a plate that attaches to the front of the PSD they removed.. Or maybe it supports from below like a forklift? Anyone know where I get one of those for myself (I could have the plate machined to grab the front of my engine, but how would it connect to the hoist? Making one seems like a PITA)

Thanks in advance for any input you have for me!
