69 Engine BB lift hook???????
 

Was just reading this item on Ebay. Were there different lift hooks between the cast iron intake and the aluminum one? Appreciate it.

No.
The BB cast & Al. intakes shared the same pull hook.
Their color shade was what was different,depending on the intake and assembly plant & time period.
1970 did use an all new design numbered hook,with a smaller hole added to it.

Hi Rick,
Do you have part numbers for the two (front and rear) engine lift hooks for 1970 big blocks?
Thanks,

I made some duplicate brackets from our originals. I'll have to try them on one of our old cast intakes to see how they fit. There are similar small block front brackets that definitely don't fit.

Thanks Rick, it was great to see you at SCR8, along with all the cool memorabilia you brought along! I really like those Chevrolet Sports Department signs..

Excuse my ignorance, but is there a different rear lift bracket on a 1970 big block? My L78 did not have one front or rear, we used accessory bolt holes to hoist the engine out..
