Yoursme LS Engine Lift Plate for Chevy Gen III/IV — CNC Steel with Multiple Hoist Points

Designed specifically for LS, LSX, LS1, LS2, LS3 and LQ4 family engines (including 4.8L, 5.3L, 5.7L, 6.0L and 6.2L variants), this lifting plate replaces makeshift eye-bolts and jury-rigged rigs with a durable, purpose-built solution. Precision-cut and welded from CNC steel, the plate gives consistent attachment points and multiple lift options so you can balance, tilt and place the engine more predictably when using an engine hoist or crane.

How does this lift plate fit different LS-series engines?

The plate is custom-fitted for Gen III and Gen IV small-block Chevy engines, covering common LS family blocks from 1997 onward. Its bolt pattern aligns with factory mounting points after intake manifold and valley cover removal, letting you attach the plate directly to the block without custom drilling.

• Fits LS, LSX, LS1, LS2, LS3, LQ4 and similar blocks across 4.8L–6.2L displacements
• Designed for late-'90s to current Gen III/IV engines
• Uses existing bolt locations—no block modification required

What balance and angle control does the plate provide?

This plate gives multiple hoist points and fine-tuning features so you can compensate for heavy accessories or non-stock assemblies. Five main lift holes let you choose forward/rearward or centered lifts, while ten additional bolt holders permit incremental angle adjustments.

• Five primary hoist holes for coarse balance selection
• Ten bolt holders for precise tilt and angle tuning
• Allows easier alignment during transmission mating or engine bay placement

How simple is installation and removal during an engine swap?

Installation requires removing the intake manifold and valley cover tray to access the block's top mounting points. Once removed, the plate mounts directly to the block with supplied or existing fasteners, giving you a repeatable attachment for both extraction and reinstallation.

• Only intake manifold and valley cover removal needed for access
• Mounts to block using OEM-style bolt holes—no permanent changes
• Quick to attach and detach, speeding swap and service work

What materials and durability features should I expect?

Manufactured from CNC-cut steel and welded for strength, the lift plate resists deformation under load and provides a rigid connection between engine and hoist. The construction is intended to withstand shop use and repeated lifts when paired with a correctly rated hoist and hardware.

• CNC steel fabrication for accurate fit and consistent strength
• Precision welding to maintain rigidity under load
• Compatible with standard engine hoists and shackles when used per capacity limits

Who this is for: The Yoursme LS Engine Lift Plate is built for professional mechanics, home garage enthusiasts and performance tuners who regularly remove or install LS-series engines and want a reliable, repeatable hoist attachment. It’s especially useful for shops performing transmission mating, engine rebuilds, or complete swaps where precise balance and controlled tilting reduce installation time and handling risk. Note: always use the lift plate with an appropriately rated hoist, follow safe lifting practices, and inspect fasteners before each use.
