Awesome video! I never even thought to mount the plate to the motor first. 🤦🏽‍♂️ I’m a tiny block Honda guy without an engine hoist so this was lifesaving 🙏🏽 Thank you so much 😁

Great vid. Perfect editing and no waffle. Hero.

Hey buddy, thanks for the video. May I ask where you bought the m10 bolt ? All the m10 I could find at Lowe’s and Home Depot are not threaded all the way like the one you have

Do you have an opinion about how to "CENTER" the engine on the bracket so that when you rotate it it stays somewhat symmetrical?

@Rythecarguy

Жыл бұрын

This really depends on how adjustable your arms are. You need to choose the trans mounting holes that align the center Kline Of the engine with the support post on the stand.

Get threaded rods and nuts, not bolts, so that u can adjust the depth into the bell housing.

Sssmmmaaarrtttt I like that

I had to put a 1939 Buick L8 engine on a stand but I didn't trust the stand being so much shorter than the engine so I built a rolling cradle for it with left over angle iron for fire place hearths and 3/16 plate. the cast iron tranny is still attached .

I've never done this and I'm not trying to ask stupid questions. What if you have to work on the clutch or flywheel? Do you just attach the stand to the other end of the engine?

@Rythecarguy

Жыл бұрын

not a stupid question! You don't know until you know! It depends on you're situation. You cannot attach it to the other end of the engine. You need to remove the clutch and maybe even the flywheel to make the engine fit on the stand. If you are careful you can sit the engine on an old tire or do like I did. I set it up some wood blocks so support it on. Yours would have to be more study than mine since mine was just temporary untill I got it on the stand. You can see it in the very end of part 4 and the very beginning of part 5 of my engine rebuild series. Here is part 4: kzread.info/dash/bejne/oIujq7CtpKixitY.html Hope this helps!

Few questions, do you need to remove the gearbox first before mounting the engine? and with the spacers is there any chance they'll bow at all or are they pretty solid?

@Rythecarguy

3 күн бұрын

Yes, the gearbox has to come off. As long as you get very high-quality bolts and thick spacers, your spacers should not bow or bend.

What grade bolts do you recommend?

Thats strange that 4 bolts and moreover the thread holes can carry the whole engine weight without breaking the block cos it is pulling downwards the one side. I would put another stand or a wood on the other side to balance the weight

I'm relieved to see someone putting an even larger engine on one of these cheesy 3 wheeled stands. I just put a fully dressed 1.6TD on one and it doesn't inspire confidence

I will say this one was home made by some dude that lived down the road and it is beefy AF it's all super strong square steel. When I first put it on I was nervous but by the time I was done it was NBD. That engine was about 550 lbs.
