I don't see why not, it looks stout enough to me.

I have a leveler that extends the length of the motor/ front to back. Front passenger chain to the lower intake manifold / block bracket. Back passenger chain to the same bracket. The chains lay on the intake manifold plenum, so nothing is damaged. Front driver side chain under/around the idler pulley bracket for the PS pump. Back driver's side chain to a stud that I place in a #4 exhaust manifold bolt hole.
