If you are ever at an auction of sale, and there is a good price on a
"transmission jack", grab it. This is what all the dealerships that I
have worked at, and myself use for dropping the engine.
They go about 30" high, and mine drops down to only about 2" off the
floor. This allows you to drop the engine down out of the car, roll it
out, and then jack it back up to workbench height.
They only have about 500 lbs capacity but that is plenty for our use.
