On a Engine stand? Dont you just slide the 4 parts of the engine stand through the motor?

Sorry never had an engine stand.

If you mean hoist then thats different.

Yours didnt come with holders for it? Try goign to a hardware store and bring a tranny bolt with you, and ask for a bolt just like it but longer but just as strong. They should have some.

Bolts arent long enough? Buy longer bolts? Seems like a pretty crazy idea to me, but it just might work.

Looking to do the same thing with a B-Series...

Do I assume correctly that you attach the engine the the stand from the tranny side?
