That was my thought as well, so I bought a four wheeled stand. The problem I encountered was that I was not able to use my cherry picker to put the engine on the engine stand because the width of the

Are the cheapo harbor freight and homier.com 750# engine stands adequate for MGB and TR250 engine work? What about the 2 ton "heavy duty load levelers"? OK for occasional home use? Thanks, Don Mallin

Not a problem for the MGB engine at least. Like most Harbor Freight kind of stuff, it will probably be fine for that kind of use. /// or try http://www.team.net/cgi-bin/majorcool /// Archives at htt

My only concern about the 750 pound unit is that thereis only one wheel out front, and it looks awful prone to tipping. I'd spend the extra couple of bucks to get the stability of 2 wheels out front,

It does look that way, but I had my motor on my 3-wheeler for a couple days and it seemed perfectly stable. I bought the stand because I thought I was going to rebuild the engine, but it turned out t

Thanks to all who replied. Several of you either implicitly or explicitly recommended the heavier 1250# capacity unit ($39.00). I didn't notice that the 750# unit ($19.00) had only one foot out front

I looked at the Harbor Freight web site. The 750lb model should be plenty strong enough for a 'B' series engine, right? Simon _________________________________________________________________________

Hi Simon I hope so! I think the critter weighs in at around 360 lbs, actually. But just in case you need to overhaul a V8 diesel sometime in the future... But what's up? You need to rebuild your engi

Is there a good way for mounting an MG blcok on an engine stand for building a motor? The obvious ways to do so tend to interfere with some critical phase of the assembly, such as installing the back

I built a bracket that mounts to the alternator/generator mounting holes and the lower engine mount hole. This is welded to a chunk of pipe that fits into a standard engine stand. This allows you to

It almost sounds like I should come up with a way to, at lest temporarily, mount the engine stand to the floor so that it can't tip. -- Software that holds your hand is one thing, software that holds

You can prevent the crank from turning while you do up bolts by removing a spark plug and feeding the end of a short stretch of rope into the compression chamber; the piston will push up against it p
