Default WTB Green Engine Brackets for Engine Removal

I'm looking for a set of the green (more or less single use) brackets that come with crate Gen III engines. Kent Moore makes some reusable blue ones, but they are too much for me. If I can't find some of the green ones cheap, I'll just use chains. BTW, some time in the next year, I'm planning to install a 408 in my truck. I'm in no big hurry.

If you have some of these brackets and you are interested in selling them, send me a PM.

Thanks in advance,

Steve

The brackets are actually useless for engine removal, you cant use the rear one on in the truck.

I would suggest some heavy duty chain and some 15mm bolts into the heads.
