I used this on my 3000 engine, bolted to the butt end, with no problems.

$13499

Compare to

 Strongway 47032 at $219.99. Save $85.00

The head is still whimpy and I would add some additional web bracing to the
back of the block and support under the front (wood block).  I don't know
who rates this stuff, but its like the 2 ton floor jack that folds like a
cheap suit, when used.  You get what you pay for, but in this case, safety
is more important. If that block drops onto your foot when you roll it;
forget your engine and your foot. Hank (healeyhelper.com)

I take it back.  Harbor Freight sells a 750lb capacity stand for $50.  The
$60 stand has a capacity of 1000lbs and they have one with folding legs that
will hold 2000lbs for $135.  The four cylinder engine can't be over 750
pounds?

Its heavy!  I built my engine stand years ago out of 1/4" tube stock but I
still put a wood brace under the engine while it was on the stand. (photo)
It sat on that stand for 40+ years until I got around to finishing the car,
so I know it did the job...lightweights might be questionable-work safe!

What does the 4 cylinder engine weigh?  Harbor Freight has a 700 lb capacity
engine stand for $60.  How do you attach the 4 cylinder engine to the stand?
I find myself having time lately to assemble the engine of my BN2.  Short
block is finished.  Need to put the head and the rest before dropping it in
the car.

A quick one. Do you think that this stand is man enough for a 3000's engine?

Got to be a decent thing and, on four wheels, presumably stable. But,
but...our engines are long and heavy.

What does the team think?

Thanks,

Simon
