Subject: moving Legacy on the Crankshaft?

Hello all,
 
I have a question, do you think it would be possible to damage my engine if I lifted the legacy from the crankshaft and tail section, rotated it 45 degrees and moved it down a driveway? It would be on the rotisserie but the engine mount and engine would be installed, I would need to move it from the backyard to the frontyard down a narrow (less than 10ft wide) pathway. If it is at a 45 degree angle it will fit. I figure I should be able to make something to connect the crankshaft to the rotisserie and lift/rotate it. Does anyone see a problem with this? Can the rotisserie take the weight?  Could this bend my crankshaft?
 
Any opinions? Has anyone done this and not broken their airplane?
 
thanks,
 
Matt
