completley depends on how much you want to use it and what for, could put a link up for one for 2k or one for £40, the one iv got is just an old scaffold swing thing with a winch and does the job perfectly an only cost me 30 quid

they're easy to use, fold away so they dont take up much space and its a good price

Thats far too big for a normal car engine, ive got this one and its done many an engine conversion:

Though thats fucking expensive, im sure we got the hoist and an engine stand too for about the same price.
