have  been looking at these.   The cheaper ones look like they  have
four adjustable arms that I assume bolt to the motor.   Are  these type

is less than $50. 


 
 
John-
 
another thing to think about if you're putting a TR6 engine on a stand  - if 
you plan on rolling the stand around at all, while the engine is on it -  get 
one with 4 wheels - not the 3 wheeled T-shaped base, because, while the  
weight rating may be adequate, it will be unstable while rolling because the 6  
block is as long as it is.
