Lifting Johnson 300
I picked up a couple of Johnson 300's from Houston and need to move them off the trailer. What size is the lifting EYE that bolts through the flywheel? I have looked online and am not seeing anything for the V8 - Just the V6 stuff.
Thanks!

This is the one I used got it for my v6s
Actually lifted motors, boat and trailer off the ground when
When I was taking the old motors off...only an inch off the ground but worked no problem was up for 15mins so
Had to move something and was fastest way

Got it on eBay if you want link

That is what I ran across on my search - I wasn't sure if it would lift the V8 or not. Thank you.

Std OMC factory lifting eye works fine. Not sure I like the sm amount of threads on the above lifting eye,however if it was tested a 2500 lbs you should be ok.

Made my own for my v6. I have about $10 into it if I had to put a price on it. I just had all the material laying around the shop so I whipped it up in about 20 minutes. Works great.

The V8 uses exactly the same factory lifting eyes (there are actually two different setups) as the V6’s.

I used the factory piece for removing the flywheel with a eye bolt threaded into it. Worked great.
