I appreciate there are some variables, but.......From the extensive experience of some of the accomplished mechanics here.
1.) How high off the ground do you need to lift a 996 coupe, to be able to pull the engine and transmission out from underneath?
2.) Also, thinking of using a wheeled hydraulic motorcycle lift, (with a collapsed height of 110mm and 400mm fully extended.) Is this feasible do you reckon?
The height of the engine complete with ancillaries such as the plenum I've measured as 650mm. At the moment, it appears I may have to drop the engine, then remove the inlet plenum and runners before moving the engine back out of the car.
Any thoughts appreciated.
Cheers James
