Props to you.Yep, Small Block Chebbies and Cummins are boring. I like to play with the weird stuff no one else likes to touch.

My stand just stays in my garage,
You do what you have to do. I'm afraid that if I left my stand outside, it would walk off.It would be nice to give it shelter but room dose not exsit to give it such luxury. Its current indoor stay is temporary and will end up back out in the weeds with a 6.9.

dont know what all the fuss is about, harbor freight 2 ton gets the job done
they even hold a DT360, and still rotate
Agreed have had 7.3s on two harbor freights for a year, moved one to my run stand recently and no bends or issues. I have to spin them with a cherry picker but that’s no bother.dont know what all the fuss is about, harbor freight 2 ton gets the job done

no, i dont grease them it would prolly help, but i dontYou know, I had zero intentions of running an electric fuel pump... Until I saw that sweet finned block off plate
Do you grease the pivot joint on your engine stand?
Well that sure ought to do the trick.i use a 6' 1.5" bar to spin mine
im getting old, gotta find ways to work smarter not harderWell that sure ought to do the trick.
Sorry. Make that 18. I was a couple of months out of high school.I was taught that when I was 20
I've been reading reviews of supposed 2000 lb engine stands on Amazon and fleabay. Most nobody likes them. They won't spin. They bend down. The arms bend. And that's with a Chevy big block on there, barely 700 lbs. An IDI weighs more like 950 iirc. We have an IDI on a stand right now and had to brace up to the front damper with a 2x6 before we could disconnect the chain hoist.
Has anyone found a decent 2000lb engine stand sold now that works for an IDI? Harbor Freight is out of stock for months.
