I purchased an engine stand from Harbor Freight, mounted our Ford van's V6 =
engine on it and used that setup to disassemble, rebuild and reassemble the=
entire engine. No issues. Even though the V6 has a cast steel block with a=
luminum heads and aluminum intake manifold, it is still a lot of weight and=
I had zero issues with the engine stand. Very stable and easy to roll arou=
nd. Now planning to use the same stand to rebuild the TR3's engine.
Sincerely,
Randall Reihing

I was at a friend's house last night and he had an Austin Healey engine on =
one of these stands. Even the TR6 engine is but a mere wisp compared to on=

You are being paranoid. Many years ago when I did my first engine I did
the math on the load capacity of the 4 bolts. You'll be fine, unless
you have one of those extremely rare engines that weighs 20,000 pounds.
