Re: Engine stand question

Hold the L8 engines by the side. On the 51-54 engines use the rear two bolt holes for the engine mount "wing" plus the two that are just below the dipstick. Make a paper pattern off the engine and use it to drill the plate of your engine stand to match.
If working on an earlier L8, I have a long piece of heavy angle iron I bolt to the pan rail using every bolt hole as they are small. The angle iron then bolts to the engine stand.
