I need to pull my KA, but there arent any hooks for the chain. Where do I chain it to? Thanks.

Chain it to the intake and exhaust manifold, but really you can just tie them with tie heavy tie-downs. Good luck..

you can loop it through the manifolds as mentioned above.

i've also looped it through the engine mount brackets before.

One bolt is near the upper radiator hose (14mm) near some sensors and a ground wire... the other bolt is near the firewall on the driver side where you remove the ground wire for your o2 sensor (12mm)... Those worked fine for me

Loop it around both manifolds and bolt the chain together. That's how I always do it... haven't had a problem yet.

Bingo, that's the suggested place in the FSM.

if you have a chain just front runner on intake manifold and back runner on exhaust manifold, you will be fine

^+1. At my boy's Junkyard, they get 100 foot rolls of seatbelt(I have no idea where from) and use it to put anything anywhere. Shyte is STRONG.
