I've been on my back on the floor many times with a 84 pound 9 inch Ford chunk above my head doing an overhead lift and then shoving it into the housing with gear oil running over my head and chest. It's lots of fun. I've been doing that about 4 times a year since I started racing my Camaro, switching from street to strip and then back again. I think I'm going to invest in some aluminum cases.

Since you do it four times a year, you could just bolt in a small winch or pulley to the underside of the trunk above the carrier location and pull it up into place effortlessly. Hmmmmmm. I should patent that idea...
