Don't really know. You have to measure the lowered height of the lift and
how thick/high the engine is from pan to oil fill neck/cap. You can remove
carbs and alternator/generator mount with neck to reduce it. The other
thing that sticks up a lot is the fan bearing. To remove that, you have to
remove the shroud sheet metal and upper engine cover. Sometimes it is as
easy to do all of this removal stuff as it is to agonize over doing it and
then putting it back on once you get the engine out.
Good Luck

I need to know how high I need to have the rear end of the corvair to remove
the engine? I will be using an ATV jack.
