4-cylinder engine stand pictures

[Kevin Trent <trentkc@domain.elided>]

Several weeks ago the recurring thread on engine stands came up, and Biba 
suggested that "Possibly Russ might be willing to send photos of his twin 
system."

I don't know if Neely ever sent pictures, but I finally got around to 
taking a few pictures of the stand I built using the 1000 lb. Harbor 
Freight stand.

This involved welding a second upright opposite the original, then 
fabricating exhaust and intake side "motor mounts" made of metal plate and 
pipe which fit in the tubes atop the uprights and bolt up to the block. The 
exhaust side motor mount has a ~1 inch offset so that the engine can rotate 
longitudinally on a common axis (the block's exhaust and intake side motor 
mount attaching points differ by that amount).

If any digesters are interested, send me a request and I'll forward the 
pictures to you.
