cheap engine stand upgrades

Nice job , I just bought a Harbor freight engine stand and had to cut off and reweld the tubes that the engine mounting bolts go through ... Chinese can't weld for $hit and apparently the welder that made mine was blind too because they were as crooked as a politician ! I'm going to pick up some bolts today and get my sons 340 off the floor:cheers:


harbor freight would have been my 2nd choice if i hadnt found a stand on cragslist. I did ditch all the hardware that this stand came with. went to local hardware store and got all grade 8 fine thread bolts for the mounting plate and grade 8 bolts for going into the block. just little piece of mind.
