Where are the best attachment points to extract a 61 235 I6 and bell housing?

This was discussed here not a couple of weeks ago. Most of use agree that the head bolts are the best place. The second or third from the back on one side and the second or third from the front on the other side. Either make sure that the bolt is threaded into the head enough, or go ahead and remove the head, then pull the block and bell housing. I removed the head first. It was kind of a hassle, but there's not near as much weight to have to mess with. And, it gave me a wide choice of where to attach the chains for my hoist.

I took the head off and used the right rear most head bolt and the left side water pump bolt. Worked good, but I didn't use the original bolts, went to the bolt bin and got different ones. Didn't want to bend the original bolts.
