I just pulled one a couple of weeks ago went front head bolt passenger side to rear head bolt drivers side. Used a chain for pulling motors that has flat tabs on the ends with holes in them.
It was a 8ba motor so it had head bolts not studs.
I have also used a sling strap when I didn't have time to try to get out a bolt.(Usually outside in the dead of winter. Like now).
Stumpy's fabricating make a pulling plate that mounts to the deck where the intake goes. But that requires removal of the intake. Stumpy's the guy that makes flathead adapters to use with a typical style engine stand.
