It's all I use to pull the engine. Never had a problem. Just be sure that the studs you use are long enough to bottom out in the manifold. That will ensure that you have plenty of thread in the hole to hold the weight. Rich ACES #05066 1966 MALIBU - Original Message - From:

I'd have to doublecheck but I'm pretty sure at least the 1966 manifold accepts a squarebore carb with a square (5-1/4?) pattern (my guess is that a 4G would fit). I had a '64 intake that took a squarebore carb but the side- to-side bolt width was less than the front-to-back width. Brad O.
