stupid jacking points question

This may seem like a dumb question and it's probably not the right section but I'll ask anyway. Where are the jacking points to safely jack these cars up? I have a 91 Z28 and we are doing an engine swap and we need to remove the exhaust, but can't seem to find where to safely jack it up

K member, control arms, the sub frame you'll see holes in it and kind of runs down the center along the transmission.

It's kind of a pita honestly on these cars unless you have subframe connectors. A-arms are always a good solid jacking point, though.

Re: stupid jacking points question

k-member for the front, axle for the rear, pretty simple. always use jackstands.
