Sprint Car Engine Sling

The CROW 11645 Sprint Car Engine Sling is purpose-built for high-performance automotive work, from sprint car assembly to heavy engine lifting operations. Designed by CROW Safety Gear—a trusted name in motorsports safety and rigging equipment—this engine sling addresses a critical need: secure, damage-free engine handling during installation, removal, or repositioning. Whether you're a professional sprint car crew chief, a dedicated weekend racer, or a shop mechanic working with high-revving competition powerplants, this sling provides the reliable lifting point your build demands.

Engine slings distribute load evenly across critical engine mounting surfaces, preventing valve cover damage, intake manifold stress, and cylinder head flex that loose chains or improper rigging can cause. The CROW sprint car engine sling is engineered to interface with standard engine lift points, accommodating the tight engine bays and unique mounting geometry common in open-wheel race vehicles. At just 0.73 lbs and measuring 10.3 inches in length with 3.9-inch width, this sling balances minimal weight (critical for weight-sensitive race builds) with robust construction. The compact footprint allows operation in confined spaces where traditional multi-point spreader bars prove unwieldy, making it ideal for mid-engine or tight-quarter installations.

Sprint car crews and race shops depend on this sling for rapid engine swaps, dyno work, and motor refreshes without marring aluminum or composite engine covers. It pairs seamlessly with 2-ton to 5-ton engine hoists and accommodates both carbureted small-blocks and fuel-injected modern power plants common in sprint racing. Professional shops, sprint car teams, and motorsports enthusiasts who understand that proper engine handling protects years of machine work and tuning investment will recognize the value of CROW's proven rigging design. This is essential equipment for anyone serious about safe, professional-grade engine work.
