    You can buy or make a 2 pulley block and tackle pretty cheap. They do the same work with half the effort. I also have a 3 pulley I use for heavier things. I just re-enforced the ceiling joist of my garage and installed a heavy duty eye bolt. I wrap a sling around my motor, if it’s an older one without a lifting eye. I also have a single pulley one with a boat trailer wench. You just need to make sure to strengthen the rafters before lifting anything too heavy. There are many cheap ATV wenches around that you could rig also.
