Hi
I stand the crankcase on it bellhousing studs and then use wooden blocks under the block to match the height then slide the block into place.
The advantage for me is the fact that once a couple of block holding down nuts are in place the crank and big ends are easy to get at.
You can fiddle with the oil baffles from the inside of the crankcase before pulling it all together with it on end.
( Re fit the bellhousing nuts to prevent damaging the studs before up ending the crankcase )
