Bob,
Looking at your pic, I would bolt the arms of your engine stand to the white
arrow. I have the same engine stand & for my TR6 I bolted the arms the same
way; to the outside rear engine plate. One arm went near the starter holes of
the plate. Make sure your at equal distance on the opposite side of the plate.
When you rotate the engine make sure you have a bolt or rod handy to lock it
in place. The locking mechanism is not very good on those cheap stands. Good
Luck,
Ibsen

I 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
