Engine Lift Plate

The ALLSTAR PERFORMANCE Engine Lift Plate (ALL 10123) is a purpose-built engine handling accessory designed for mechanics and engine builders who regularly work with carbureted powerplants. This 3/16-inch thick steel lift plate bolts directly to your carburetor flange, providing a secure attachment point for engine hoists and lifting equipment during installation, removal, or service work. Whether you're working on a street engine, race motor, or classic restoration, this lift plate eliminates the need for makeshift lifting solutions and protects your carburetor and manifold from damage during critical engine movements.

Manufactured from heavy-duty steel with a cadmium finish, the Engine Lift Plate delivers corrosion resistance and durability in shop and garage environments. The square bore carburetor flange mounting design accommodates standard spread-bore intake manifold configurations common on domestic performance engines. At 2.66 pounds and measuring 8.05 x 2.25 x 11.1 inches, this plate distributes load stress across the carburetor mounting surface rather than concentrating it on a single point, reducing the risk of cracked manifolds or bent studs. The robust 3/16-inch thickness ensures rigidity under the dynamic forces generated during engine hoisting, making it an essential safety tool for professional-grade engine work.

Technicians, engine builders, and enthusiasts benefit most from this lift plate when performing engine swaps, carburetor maintenance, or full engine rebuilds. It's particularly valuable in tight engine bays where standard lifting chains or cables would bind on adjacent components. Installation is straightforward—simply bolt the plate to your existing square bore carburetor flange using your stock mounting hardware, then attach your engine hoist to the plate's lifting lug. Cadmium plating provides years of service life, and the universal design works with most domestic carburetors and spread-bore intake manifolds, making it a versatile addition to any professional or serious amateur shop setup.
