I'm sticking with the end mount. All I need to do is replace the oil pan
gasket, timing cover gasket and, maybe the front seal.

        Bob:

        Just be advised of the need to get the mount as close as possible to
the center of gravity. The first time you try to turn the motor over in the
engine stand to get at the other side, you will 300+ lbs looking for home in
a big hurry. Can throw you to the floor (or
worse) if you are not prepared. 
        The scheme shown will be very stout, I would advise NOT putting the
flywheel on in an attempt to keep the whole thing balanced.

        Vance

One of the List guys found this picture on someone's web site (he can't
remember who) and it uses the engine mount bolt holes for the engine stand.
Very cool idea but does anyone see a down side to this? The picture is at
the bottom of http://tr6.danielsonfamily.org/EngineStand.htm
 
Thanks
