I am going to be pulling the engine out of my 90 GSX this winter break and need some answers. I have pulled blocks before, but both of them already had the head off, so where would I connect the cherry picker to pull out my block with the head still attached? Should I remove the valve cover and attach somewhere there or what?

Pictures would be excellent. Please and thank you. :D
 
Ok, I am ready to go now, the only thing I have never done.......slaps on flameshield........changed radiator fluid...
So.....
I know I just buy some no-name green coolant, but do I need to mix it with water?
And then where do I fill it at? The thing to the left of the valve cover?
Please and thanks. :D :D

Figured out my coolant question. Now is the time to start her up and I need to know....do I need to "prime" the engine at all? Is there anything I need to do before trying to turn it over a few clicks? Thanks
