Subject:Stand or Bench for engine?
From:Rocket J Squirrel
Date:Tue, 12 Oct 2004 08:46:15 -0700

I will be pulling the 1.9 to work on the heads. When I work on my
aircooled 1600DP from the 71 bay window I put it on an engine stand I
got from aircooled.net that fits that engine. Due to creaky old bones I
like something that brings the engine up high and lets me flip it to
work on the bottom.

Working on the 1.9 might be sufficiently different that I may need to
plan ahead. I'd like to hear from others: is there a good stand for
these engines? Or do you just plunk it on a sturdy bench?
