Engine test stand?????

[djunod]

Back when I was a kid I made an engine stand out of 2x4's and ran the 350 out of my '70 Camaro on it... I had just completely rebuilt the engine by myself and wanted to make sure that it worked before installing it back into the car. No problems at all.

Recently I saw a stand, made out of steel that even had the mounting for a transmission, so that they could "load it up", and a radiator. It was home-made. Easy to make such things with just the steel that Lowes (or Home Depot) sells.
