FOUND LIFTING EYE IN BACK OF 88 L98 5.7 TPI. DONT SEE ANY OTHER SOLID ATTACH POINTS.....SPECIAL BRACKET/ADAPTER TO PULL ENGINE ? ????? 
I PLAN TO USE THE ALUMINIUM R/H ACCESSORY BRACKETS WITHOUT AIR PUMP / A/C COMPRESSOR AND L/H SIDE ALTRNTR / PWR STEERING BRACKET. LOOP SOME CHAINS THRU FOR 3 POINT HOOKUP TO LOAD LEVELER AND PULL IT.SO FAR SO GOOD.

I WAS LOOKING FOR SOLID LOCATIONS TO HOOK UP TO THE ENGINE TO PULL IT. MINE HAS ONLY ONE LIFTING EYE IN THE BAK.

You could go to an auto parts store and get an engine hoist bracket that bolts to where the carb/Tpi mounts up to? you would have to take the Tpi off though

I usually just stick a bolt through the chain and bolt it onto the front of the head.
