The Mac's PiVOT Articulated Engine Lift Plate
The Mac's PiVOT bolts to the intake manifold and has an adjustable arm that controls tilt of a complete V-8 engine and transmission up to 35° angle. Simply bolt the PiVOT to the carburetor flange (or cylinder heads using an EFI adapter), hook your cherry picker to the pivot point at the top of the plate and begin to raise or lower your engine. Engines and transmissions can be tilted for install and then straightened and bolted in while still on the hoist, without the need for a jack under the transmission.

Description
How It Works
The Mac's PiVOT uses the center of gravity to control the rotation of the engine and transmission. Adjusting the PiVOT's easy-turn orientation bolt causes a small shift in the center of gravity of the engine/transmission, relative to the cherry picker attach point. The engine/transmission reacts to this shift by gently rotating into its new equilibrium.
Smooth and Strong
The Mac's PiVOT is operated by turning the 1/2" orientation bolt. This bolt is precision-machined to ensure smooth, easy operation with only 25 ft-lbs of torque required. This low operating torque gives you the option of using an impact wrench or simply adjusting the engine angle manually with a socket wrench.
The Mac's PiVOT is built to last. The body is fabricated of thick steel plate and full-length welds. With a 1,200 lb capacity, it will not bend like other adjustable lift plates. The grade 8 cap screws are rated to 1500lb, to provide safe use for all iron and aluminum manifolds.
Fits Most 2 and 4 Barrel Carburetors and More
The Mac's PiVOT includes several different hole patterns, supporting attachment to the most popular two and four barrel carburetors, including:
Rochester
Carter
Holley
Stromberg
1050 Holley Dominator
For racing-specific, unusual applications or fuel-injected engines, the Mac's PiVOT can be fitted with one of several optional adapter plates (sold separately).
Other Uses for the Mac's Pivot
The Mac's PiVOT is not limited to engine/transmission installation! The Mac's PiVOT works great for:
Re-aligning engine dowel pins. Use the Mac's PiVOT to re-align the engine dowel pins to the transmission when only the engine is removed.
Fabricating engine mounts. Use the Mac's PiVOT to allow the correct angle to be maintained while fabricating engine and transmission mounts.
Aligning engine and transmission mounts. When working on race cars, it allows precision alignment of the engine and transmission mounts and saves valuable time.
Removing automotive-type marine engines. It also works on marine inboards with automotive-type engines.
