Thanks for the encouragement, it's hard graft at the moment!
BTW, my chain hoist was bought about fifteen years ago from the local collective agricultural sale for a measly £40. It came mounted on a carriage to run on a RSJ but a smaller one that the 5" monster in my garage, which necessitated turning and threading some new, longer pins.
It's a useful bit of kit and equally up to doing modern engines, I changed an engine-transmission unit on a Toyota Corolla using this just after it was first installed.
The only problem is that the garage roof is a bit low.....
