Default Raising/Supporting Engine

Does anyone have one of engine support bars and know where I can pick one up? I am refering to the ones that lay across the engine compartment and connect there in the alternator area (once the alternator is removed of course) like the one used for this k member install.

Engine Support Bar on page 3

I am going to drop the entire front suspension for upgrades and was wanting to install a windage tray while in the area but obviously can't do it with the engine supported under the oil pan. I don't have a engine puller and obviously would not pull it just to put in a windage tray, but I figure for all the work I am doing, one of these bars would help to hold the engine while the entire k member is removed and then with the oil pan exposed, I could put in the windage tray with everything else and make it easy. I am also open to any other suggestions. Just as a side note, this is a 96 GT (don't guess it matters, but just saying). Thanks.

Scott

Does anyone have anything regarding my situation? I mean alternative I came up with was to just support everything under the transmission and under the crankshaft pulley? Is it ok to put a block or something under the pulley? Can it support the weight without messing anything up? Your thoughts?
