just assembled my cheapo Harbour Freight, hope I only have to use it one
time, engine stand. I'm sure it's obvious to everyone but me
but..........how do you bolt the engine to the stand? I know you use bolts
and nuts but where on the engine is the attachment point? A picture is worth
a thousand words so http://tr6.danielsonfamily.org/EngineStand.htm Do my
arrows show the attachment points?
This is one of those things I want to get right as I have visions on it
falling on the floor....oops.
Thanks

Bob,
My HF stand was built wrong. When assembled, the horizontal axis pointed
downhill instead of uphill. I had a local shop cut off the upright and reverse
it for me.The problem I had was when you removed the locking pin to rotate it,
you got into an ugly situation where the 600# (XK) engine was sliding
downhill!
