Default Re: Engine test stand

Those stands look very nice, but rather expensive. If you can find a grocery shoping cart that still has good wheels, you have a great engine stand. The two I built had the baskets tossed, and both had some solid metal on the rear to work with. I lenghtened them about a foot, and built up the back some 1/4 X 2 plate would bolt to the bell housing. Many holes later it has run a flathead, a chev, a nailhead, and a Y block. It works good, its cheap, and it rolls around easy.
