I have a few old shopping cart "trucks" that work well but I like to weld and have the ability to roll the assembly around.

I'm trying to mock-up a transmission, but my engine stand is, you know, in the way! short of resting a long-block on it's oil pan on the floor, are there any creative solutions for holding an engine out there? |

Define creative? This may give you some ideas if you want to get into a bit of fab work. |

Seth, I was mocking up both a 727 and an 833, so had the same problem you have. I made a simple frame carriage from wood (no scratch) that worked so well a machine shop here got it from me and still uses it for head and cam assembly. I will send a pic if you PM me your email. rock '64d100 |

ide put the head on and use your cherry picker to hold the engine and use the manifold bolts to hold the engine |
