Re: Flatheads breaking off engine stands and falling.
I know there’s lots that have done it but it’s a risk . I have a Krw stand ( I realize they are expensive and hard to come by but I’m highlighting the mounting method) that has the mount for v8’s from the exhaust port and that is how I would mount them. Make a manifold plate and modify to your modern stand . There’s too much money involved in rebuilding them to take a chance on failure at the rear of the engine flange . Any fix would be weak at best .
