Cut the sheetmetal crossover on the front and either use a cut down hoist as I did here or elevate the van in the front. I installed this 7.3 IDI with no helpers, just myself, and it aligned with the transmission. Injection pump and lines on, power steering is hung off to one side and transmission cooler as well. Afterwards drove it 10K across country and back with no issues. Engine was bought stripped and had been laying on its side in a farmer's field. Tested and got it running before installing it.
