Build Your Engine Test Stand 

Ford 302:”I’m not working with that Chevy radiator!”😀

Really enjoying these videos, a lot of content in a short time, some levity, nicely produced, I like the narration, great bumper music. Keep them coming

Maybe too late now for you, but look around for an old irrigation engine stand. I got one from a friend that had a 428 propane engine (complete rig, with FT heads) that did duty on a farm over in California. I tore the engine down for him in exchange for the stand, which has a C700 truck radiator on it, brackets and mounts for the engine and battery, and holes for six casters. And a "never seen one before" shorty cast iron bell housing that was no doubt hooked up straight to the pump. There were at least a few third party companies back then that sold these rigs to farmers across the country, so there has to be some still floating around, possibly with 454's or 460's. Excellent foundation, just needs a gauge panel and mounts made for different engines.

I have one for small block chevy and another for Ford Yblock. Both made out of wood. Works great.

id lveo to see this done with a modern engine with all its computers. just so i can replicate it

I've taken the day off, and found the way to spend 20 minutes of my free time !!! Love the coffee filter hack !!!! Now, when are we going to that thing turn a flywheel in "anger" ?????? Inquiry

I like your engine stand.I think it will work great.Wondering how you will mount the starter .I guess you will add a bell housing.

Gauges in front or behind, I perfer behing.

I would say this is a noble effort. If available go to a industrial scape yard, pick up a old warehouse dolly, (2) and use the second one to cut and build radiator support and engine support and engine instrument panel with flat aluminum metal.

Any concerns about the motor being higher than the rad air pockets impeding coolant flow

I like the coffee filter hack.

Can you design one that folds down so you can hang it on the wall

I gotta know, who was the soundtrack?

I've always wanted to build one of these for a rotary except that it would need a full exhaust system because running it otherwise would be just too damn loud. I'd have complaints from 10 blocks over.

Darrin’s are the best.

I have no words

Pry bar and 2x4 when there is a cherry picker 4 feet away.

I was gonna say why does it have to be all metal......

I don’t care how “ugly” the HEI looks, I’m using one on mine.
