no... just get a hoist and do it the right way. Post up in the regional forum and see if you can get someone local to help.

Things to remember
-completely remove the distributor (or you will break it)
-remove the wiper motor (or you will break it)
-double check all the grounds and pigtails (I usually pull the ECM harness out of the fender and pull the wiring off when the engine is out)
-Are you pulling the trans also?
if yes, make sure to plug the tailshaft (I use the front yoke of a old driveshaft)
If no, remember to support the bellhousing, and unclip the cooler lines from the oil pan


-now is a great time to do motor mounts, and to clean and spray bomb the engine bay
