Nicest engine stand I've seen. I'd buy one if I built more than one engine every 15 years, lol. By the way, do you sell just the Chevy motor plate and or mounting bolts and spacers?
Thanks. I appreciate that. Yes, we could. I would need to know where the slots/holes are in your existing engine stands mounting plate. Either that, or you could give me the width and height of your existing mounting plate, and if you are comfortable in drilling holes in the existing plate, then, I could provide something that would fit. You can send us an enquiry through our website mechanicsmate.com.au
It certainly isn't $100. But you do get what you pay for. One dropped engine, bad back, etc is more than this stand costs. Not sure if you seen this engine stand with the 8.3L Cummins mounted longways on it. Not bad for a 450kg (1000#) rated engine stand.
If you are a professional or avid hobbyist that works on engines all the time, it's worth the 2 grand. If you are only going to work on one engine in your entire life, you can do without it.
I have a customer running an engine on one of these stands. I wouldn't recommend it though without clamping the main shaft to stop the vibration on the gears in the gearbox.
