With newer engine there is possibility where there is no plug.
You just do engine rebuilt with oil change

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 83059284


Worked at a engine machine shop. Had a Ford 351 come in.
Crusty old geezer thought oil changes were a scam. Never changed the oil in his new car, just topped it up.
The valve covers weighed 20lbs. each. Solid congealed oil. The Oil pan was 50lbs. You could read the main bearing casting # in the plasticized mess.
Amazingly he got away with it for almost 5 years.

Mine was 4" of 3500lb fiber reinforced concrete. I've beat on it for 20 years and I have scary cracks around the post you see on the right.

If you have the budget, go for 6 and sleep very well knowing it'll handle anything.

Or, dig deeper where the lift is going to be and pour 3 foot footers for the columns and finish the rest at 3.5".

 Quoting: Pilgrim001


3.5 is really bone minimum or under. Most call for 4-5" minimum. I cut out part of my garage floor, drilled several holes sideways into the existing slab, installed rebar 10" in and 10" out. This was to tie the pour to the existing slab. Then poured 8" thick high strength to fill with steel reinforcement screen 1.5" from bottom. Easily passed inspection for lift footing/base in this county.

10,000lb top bar lift.

In any case, if you use an existing slab, Unless you KNOW what concrete was used, you would need to do a rebound resiliometer test to determine if it is strong enough. On top of that, you have to make absolutely sure that there are absolutely no voids under the slab. Voids can really be dangerous down the line.

Duct tape a long piece of quarter inch tubing to the suction hose of your shop wet vac and stick it down the dipstick tube and vacuum it out .
Make sure you put at least a gallon of gas in the wet vac first for easy cleaning when your well done .

Knowing where the center of gravity is, is crucial. On this boat the tongue weight was very light so I knew the trailer tires were approximately at the center of the boat's lateral CG.

I simply got the arms in position and put the trailer wheels dead center with the columns. Nice and steady.
