I do the exact same thing with the dollies. Three 2x4s under the shallow end
of
the pan on my U-20. http://fototime.com/57A02524301DD5F/orig.jpg I'm
hanging the flywheel and clutch off the back so I can mate it up with the
transmission, also on a moving dolly. I also use moving dollies under each
wheel so I can push the car around the garage as I need to.

I
used my HF stand for many year and engines (U20, R16 and a L18) - no
issues.
I also use their movers dollies to store engines on - these are made of
thick
plastic or wood (depending on the load rating) and have 360 degree
pivoting
metal wheels on each corner. This allows you to push them around
and easily
attach a hoist. You can do top end work on them too if you don't
mind sitting
or kneeing. You might need to use a few 2x4 wood cross members
to keep certain
parts of the pan and crank from carrying the load.

[Roadsters] Harbor Freight engine stand
Gotta return a borrowed engine stand
and buy my own.
Folks happy with Harbor Freight, or should I go elsewhere?
Thanks.
Pete
