I plan to place my engine, tansmission, alternator, fuel pump,etc back in the car in one single lift. Unfortunately my engine hoist is rated at 1000lb. I realize the block and head, crank, pistons alone are maybe 550 pounds, transmission, 100 pounds, flywheel, 100 pounds, accesories 100--I'll be close to 900 pounds. Can i do this with a 1000 pound hoist. Am i taking a chance
