Happy Hooker Experience?

Sorry, I couldn't resist the title :-). Has anyone here ever used the TPIS Happy Hooker (for pulling the engine)? If so, was hood removal required and were there any problems with mating it to an L98 (the catalog says it will fit an L98 and that hood removal is not required, but I'd feel better if someone has actually proved it). Is plenum removal required? I've ordered it already (it's half the price of balance beam) but was just looking for any tips/experience or recommendations. Should be slick if it works. Thanks to all who can help out.
