Hey guys i just have a quick question.

I am pulling the engine out of b3000 and have the engine out and on a hoist but I need to get it onto a stand to get the bits off of it to go on the re manufactured engine i am putting in.

SO! my question is how to attach the old engine to the stand...

A newbie question i know but i don't know.

I was thinking about using the engine to tranny holes to mount the engine, would this work??? I went out and bought longer tougher bolts so that they will fit with this engine stand because the original bolts were not long enough.

Thoughts? Concerns? Comments?

All appreciated.

Thanks

P.s. i can attach pictures if needed/wanted. just ask!

The usual place to mount an engine to a stand are the bellhousing bolt holes on the rear of the engine block. And yes, do make sure that you use bolts that have adequate grip length on the threads.
