    New Engine Stand Idea

    The legs are spread too wide on all the 2000 lb stands I have viewed to get into my cherry picker. I bought 500' of heavy 3" I beam. These 2 factors lead to me deciding to build what I want. I'm also going with 5" wheels instead of 3". I'm building it taller as well. I'm 6'2". It seems all the...

    Does it still blow white smoke in the morning? Does it misfire until it runs 30 seconds or more? Do you have to add coolant?

    What all is involved in putting a 93 turboed 7.3 in place of my 91 n/a
